What can I expect?
These small group paddleboard sessions are designed to meet you right where you are, both physically and emotionally. We'll inflate the boards (electric pumps!), carry them to the water, and climb on. There is no requirement to stand on the board. Ever. And whether this is your first time or 117th time on the water, we'll stay curious about this adventure together.
Our goal on the water is to have a fully present experience, to notice the inner and outter experience, to ease our minds and unwind our bodies.
Here are some needs and goals people have...the possibilities are endless:
- showing up at the lake
- getting on the paddleboard
- being in community with others
- paddling while sitting
- kneeling on the board
- standing up on the board
- adjusting expectations
- accepting limitations
- pushing limits
- trying something that feels uncomfortable
- accepting what your body can or cannot do at any given time
- laughing, telling a joke, or sitting in quiet contemplation
The goal is not to stand or become a proficient paddleboarder, it is to attune to yourself, nurture your innate wisdom, unwind, and have fun.
I will support, guide, and trust you, all at the same time.
