It's great to have a website dedicated to important communications and everything you need to know about the ski school. It helps both instructors and clients navigate the ski school, both organizationally and in terms of reliability and professionalism.

The only downside, in my opinion, is the complex design of the menu interface, which isn't particularly intuitive, although this is a problem that resolves itself with consistent use of the website.

We had a wonderful experience with both our children (9 and 5); the school (and particularly Prem) is responsive, organised and flexible when required. We have found every teacher to be very kind and friendly which has made the whole difference!

Top! I've been using them for over two years, and the results are incredible. At 40, and afraid to let go of my board, it was a real challenge for me. But Nicola is the best! Technique, talent, and kindness: he helped me push my limits. If you want real results, trust him and Giorgio Rocca's school! And Veronica is second to none for all the office management: always available and smiling. I adore you!

Marco is the man! To say my friend and I had an extraordinary time would be an understatement! He is incredibly skilled and patient - and also kept me relaxed.

We had the best time today and want to come back to take lessons again. So happy with this experience, thanks to Marco! He came highly recommended and lived up to his reputation for being the best.

Our Team Is Here To Help You Enjoy The Lake

For us, stand-up paddleboarding is how we connect with the quiet side of St. Moritz. It is our way of enjoying the alpine summer. We don’t view this as running generic, standardized classes. When you join one of our private or small-group lessons, you are spending time with people who truly value this lake and understand exactly how to teach you to paddle comfortably in this unique high-altitude environment.

“We focus on teaching you effortless technique and natural balance, so you lift your head, take a deep breath, and genuinely feel the serene energy of the water.”

What To Expect From Us

  • Patient, clear coaching that values confidence over speed
  • We only schedule lessons during calm, reliable lake conditions
  • Hands-on guidance for true core stability and balance
  • Quality local gear: stable boards, lightweight paddles, and safety gear provided
  • Warm, friendly alpine hospitality and local insights
  • A relaxed, small-school environment focused entirely on you

Local Coaching For All

Getting You Started

First time? We help you through the fundamentals. We focus entirely on stability and confidence. Learn to properly stand, make simple strokes, and understand safe navigation in calm morning water without any pressure.

Polish Your Technique

We refine how you move. If you can balance but tire easily, we analyze your biomechanics. Improve your stroke efficiency, learn pivot turns, build core endurance, and master paddling smoothly across longer distances.

Explore The Lake

Designed for experienced paddlers who want a challenge. We can organize advanced biomechanics coaching, alpine fitness workouts, or long-distance scenic crossings to the quiet corners of Lake St. Moritz or nearby waters.

Genuine, Professional Lakeside Guides

Our guides are certified instructors, but more importantly, we are passionate locals. We understand the lake conditions, wind behavior, and optimal times for learning. We don’t overcomplicate things with jargon; we explain the essentials clearly and intuitively, making sure the atmosphere always stays friendly and relaxed. Safety is primary, but we prioritize ensuring you leave the lake with a smile.

Experience Our Home Water

Lake St. Moritz is situated at 1,800 meters. The air is crisp, and the scenery is spectacular. Paddling offers a quiet, slow-paced way to experience this landscape far from the roadside noise. A local guide can explain the natural environment, show you the town from the unique water-level perspective, and help you truly connect with the tranquil energy of the alpine summer.

Hands-On, Local Paddle Coaching

We keep our lessons flexible to match your mood and physical comfort. Whether you want a careful private technique session, a fun lakeside morning with your family, or just a guided early morning tour before the breeze sets in, we structure the time to fit you.

Our Lessons Are Ideal For::

  • Complete beginners looking for a gentle, safe trial run
  • Families or small groups seeking a fun summer lakeside activity
  • Fitness enthusiasts wanting a low-impact alpine training session
  • Paddlers needing technique analysis for better glide and efficiency
  • Travelers wanting a peaceful early morning lake experience

Authentic Summer Memories on the Water

A summer getaway in St. Moritz is about exploring the nature. For us, stand-up paddleboarding represents tranquility, health, and appreciation for this incredible mountain landscape. We take great pride in sharing our passion in a genuinely warm, authentic way. If you want helpful local coaching and a relaxed, memorable outdoor experience, our small school delivers a truly personal adventure on the lake.

Let’s Get You On The Lake

Contact our small local team today to find the right session block for you. We look forward to seeing you down by the lakeside and teaching you how we paddle.
