Steeve Fleury

Steeve Fleury, instructor and multiple Swiss Stand-up Paddle champion.

I've been sliding through life since I was young. In 2007, I discovered Stand-Up Paddle, and it quickly became my lifestyle. Rising early, gazing at the horizon, and gliding on my board, no matter the conditions, is now my daily routine. I've competed in numerous races and events, and been crowned Swiss champion more times than I can count. However, I retired to ensure that Stand-Up Paddle remains a lifelong passion. I live in Nyon, near the lake, and I continue to explore it with the same joy as ever. During this retreat, I hope to inspire you with the simple joy of walking—or rather, sliding—on water, at any pace, on any liquid surface. I look forward to meeting you and sharing these moments together.
