Arizona SUP Academy
Performance · Tempe Town Lake · Spring 2027 enrolling

Train deliberately.
Race honestly.

The athletic spine of the academy. The 8-week Academy Season is where every paddler starts — Mon–Thu coached practices, 99 coach-witnessed badges, ending in a podium race day. Race Team is the elite tier above.

What Performance is

Skill, season, podium.

The sport side of the academy. ACA-progression stroke mechanics held under race-pace heart rate. USA-SUP-sanctioned competition with race entries handled. Strava-logged training that the next coach reads. Built around the Academy Season at Tempe Town Lake and the elite Race Team that ladders up from it.

Value 01

Train deliberately

Volume isn't the goal — quality of work is. Every drill has an intention. Every practice has a focus badge the coach watches for.

Value 02

Race honestly

Respect the line. Respect the call. Respect the paddler on your right. Cheating shortcuts you out of the only thing competition was teaching you.

Value 03

Recover hard

Recovery is part of the work, not the absence of it. Sleep, fuel, mobility, breath. Athletes who don't recover deliberately plateau.

Eight weeks.
One podium.
