Posted: 22 January 2018
USA. CALIFORNIA. MORRO BAY. Mary is an ASI SUP Instructor and SUP School owner at Morro Bay California USA. She got involved in SUP due to a back injury she sustained.
After experiencing first hand a lack of safe instruction on technique in paddlesports, she suffered a back injury. Unable to continue kayaking or sit on a board comfortably, she turned to SUP, which helped her recovery and so began her passion for SUP.
She was also passionate about the need for quality instruction and safety education. After researching the market, she came across ASI and realized they have by far the most comprehensive SUP educational and safety framework, across the world.
She completed her SUP instructor training in the US and became an ASI accredited SUP School. She is now also an ASI Trainer, authorized to train others to be ASI SUP Instructors.
