ISSA Inclusive Sailing Program

Sailing Instructors of Persons with Disabilities (SIPD) Program
The SIPD program emerged from a profound acknowledgment of the imperative for more inclusive sailing experiences. ISSA is committed to making sailing accessible to all, irrespective of abilities.

SIPD Program was launched in 2023

The SIPD program, stands as a unique and pivotal opportunity for sailing instructors and enthusiasts to expand their knowledge and skills in adapting sailing instruction for people with disabilities. It’s not just a training program, it’s a movement that aims to reshape how sailing is taught, breaking down barriers and promoting inclusivity on the water.
