SUP (stand up paddling) is the fastest growing marine sport in the world because it is so easy to learn. It can be engaged by all ages and is a great workout for every muscle. SUP is affordable and can be done on lakes, on the sea, or even on rivers! Students take a Japanese Standard Course (20 lessons) for two weeks and learn to SUP at two afternoons (2.5 hours per day) each week. Our professional surfing school provides surfboard/body-board, wetsuit, rash vest, sunscreen and transport. It is great fun and very safe!

This course is exclusive to Asahi Nihongo students and most suitable for beginner or elementary surfers. You will learn carrying your board to the water and mounting it as well as paddling boarding strokes and turns. You will also be taught what to do when you fall and how to catch a wave. Furthermore, you can enjoy the beautiful beach and the great facilities of the Marine Shop Pantai Bagus.

Depending on the surfing and weather conditions, the dates for the surf classes may vary. Safety is most important! At the end of the course, we will present you a CD with the best photos of your surfing experience.

If you want to see for yourself how much fun we have at the beach, please feel free to have a look at the photos of our students and our do not forget to watch our video.
