The clinic was well worth the drove over from the coast!
Jessica is an amazing educator even though you are in a group clinic she still works with everyone one on one. I now have a better understanding of what I was doing wrong and have the techniques to practice on land and water. If you want to take SUP to the next level this clinic is a must for you! I look forward to the next one I can attend. Thank you!!
