Experience world class paddling right outside DC!

If you want to learn how to stand up paddle in the Washington, DC area, Paddlestroke SUP is your top choice for stand up paddle lessons. We’ll provide you with top-quality, enthusiastic, supportive instruction from experienced professional stand up paddlers. Your first lesson will be in a safe, calm-water environment where you’ll learn the basics—from how to use your equipment, to balance and paddling technique, to what to do in case you happen to fall in. You’ll have the benefit of starting out right and getting a solid understanding of the fundamentals.

The area boasts great hiking trails such as the Billy Goat Trail and platforms for incredible viewing of the Great Falls Waterfall. After your paddling lesson, The Old Angler's Inn is within walking distance or you're just a short drive to several great restaurants and bars in the Potomac.

Potomac LOCATION

LESSON DAY INSTRUCTIONS

SUP 1|2|3 lessons meet at Old Angler’s Lot in Potomac, MD. Old Angler’s is located just off MacArthur Blvd, across the street from Old Angler’s Inn. The lot is a popular spot for those embarking on the river and the canal path. Parking can be tough, so plan to arrive a little early in order to allow time to find a parking spot.  All other SUP activities will meet at a location advised by Greg Miller.

Restroom facilities are located at the lot, and the area is regarded as safe. Please be careful of traffic on the road, however, and courteous to cyclists along the way. We do not meet at the restroom! We meet at the Paddlestroke Sprinter Van in the lower parking lot.
