I grew up in the New Forest, UK and for as long as I can remember have loved spending time on or in the water. I spent my teenage years surfing as much as I possibly could. Since graduating in 2012, I’ve worked as a professional actor and musician and was spending a lot of time on tour or in London so I didn’t always have access to the sea, and then I discovered stand up paddle boarding. I instantly fell in love with it and the fact you can pretty much SUP anywhere there’s water. I’ve since travelled with my paddle board to over 20 countries whilst on a job playing in a rock n roll band on cruise ships. I’ve been lucky enough to paddle the fjords in Norway, the warm bays of the Caribbean, the crystal clear rivers of Croatia and the through ice and snow in the lochs of Scotland. Paddle boarding is my passion and I can’t wait to share it with you! When Covid hit I had to rethink my career as the entertainment industry is looking like the last thing to come back. So I've spent the first part of the summer getting qualified as a SUP instructor through BSUPA, and since have worked solidly delivering paddle sessions.
I have worked as a freelance SUP instructor since qualifying but also set up my own SUP Guide business- Josh The SUP Guide. Ive lead SUP tours and lessons on rivers, lakes, ocean and canals.
