If you loved SUP yoga last year (or intended to come try it, but never did), we have good news! It is SUP yoga season. This year we are offering FloYo®, which is a branded type of SUP yoga. The signature FloYo class consists of vinyasa yoga sequences where SUP sun salutations will flow into lengthening…

If you know us, you already know, we love dogs! And we think paddling with our dogs is just one more awesome thing about SUP. So, yes, you are welcome to bring your dog with you when you rent paddleboards from us. Of course, we have a couple of caveats:1. Please let us know in advance. We…

Our friends at PaddleSouth posted a picture of the trash they collected after a paddle today. Talking about broken bottles and discarded lures isn’t exactly our favorite topic of conversation. But, the reality is, particularly on urban waterways, we find garbage. And as a company, our mission is to donate money and support organizations that…

I was saddened to hear about the drowning of Karl Savio Pimenta-Pereira, a 28-year-old paddleboarder who died while paddling on Lady Bird Lake this weekend. Of course, I’m sad when anyone dies tragically, particularly when it is connected to SUP. But this hit close to home, not because I knew him, but because I was…

We’re excited to kick the SUP season off again at the Cumberland River Paddlefest on Saturday, May 3, presented by Paddle Adventures Unlimited. It takes place on Old Hickory Lake (876 Burnett Rd., Old Hickory, TN 37138). This is a totally free event (free parking, free demos, free music), where you can demo SUPs, kayaks and canoes,…

It is a funny week, with the little names for the all days: Black Friday (and now Black Wednesday and Thursday, too), Small Business Saturday, Cyber Monday. Tomorrow is Giving Tuesday, which is a push to get folks to think about their end-of-year philanthropic gifts during the holiday season. I’m of two minds about Giving…

We love the folks who have gone on this Nashville Paddle journey with us, not just learning to paddle, but working for the watershed (raising funds for the Cumberland River Compact) and exploring Middle Tennessee. We hope that you know all year long how grateful we are for your passion and trust and senses of…

Our friends at Tennessee Scenic Rivers Association (TSRA) have asked for help this weekend (Nov. 1 or Nov. 3: Friday or Sunday; they’re all set on Saturday) building a new paddling access point on Whites Creek. If there’s one thing on which all paddlers can agree: We want more safe places to access the water.…

One of the most frequent questions people ask us is, “Where can I buy a used board?” We know, quality equipment is not cheap. We’ve started a free page where people can post gear they have for sale (either for cash or as part of a swap). We plan to host a real swap event…

Nashville Paddle Co. supports the work of the Cumberland River Compact every day: we donate a portion of all our proceeds—lessons and rentals—to the organization. So, it only makes sense that we would be a sponsor of the Cumberland River Dragon Boat Festival, their largest event of the year. Well, we brought our enthusiasm to…
