​Hi. I'm Julian, the owner of Toronto Island SUP Inc. (TISUP) and an International Surf Association SUP Instructor.

I grew up on Toronto Island and spent most of my youth in and on the water sailing, swimming and paddling. After studying in Hawaii and falling in love with the surf and SUP culture their, I created this business with hopes to fuse that lifestyle with our own unique way of life here. TISUP is the megaphone through which I spread the values that I believe we need to make this world a better place: fostering community, respect for our natural world and the importance of having experiences over things. I've travelled all over the world in an effort to find examples of these values in practice and to bring them home to share and continue this wonderful community of water people.

I've built a dedicated staff who I trust and respect deeply for the unique and demanding work they do for our community and the natural world.

​See me on LinkedIn.

TISUP instructors are certified with either Paddle Canada as Basic and Advanced SUP Instructors or with the International Surf Association as SUP Instructors. Our goal is to give you a fun and safe learning environment on the waters of Lake Ontario in either the calm waters of the lagoon or the open lake at Wards Beach. Unique and exciting classes are provided to individuals and groups all throughout the summer. There is something for everyone whether you are a total beginner or an advanced paddler looking for some extra training and fun.
