Perth Stand Up Paddle School Details

I remember writing ‘let your dreams become your reality” in the sand on a beach on the Isle of Mull (an island in the Inner Hebrides in Scotland) when I was 19 years old.

I didn’t understand the power of positive thinking or the fact that I was capable of reaching the big dreams back then...I just thought it was a cool saying.

The road to where I’m at right now has been very long and winding, and I try to incorporate what I’ve learnt along the way into my SUP Lessons.

I try to relate to people, understand where they are coming from.

Everyone has a story.

Here’s mine.

When I grew up, I wanted to be a ballerina (like a thousand other girls my age).

After an injury, I travelled and came back to Perth to continue my studies in Education.

I literally fell into stand up paddling (yep, there was lots of falling in the beginning) way back in 2010 when I first jumped on a board.

Like dancing, it’s all about rhythm and balance.

I was immediately hooked.

I started training and I found a fabulous community of people in the SUP world.

I was teaching a brilliant dance program, EDU-Dance in Primary schools in Perth WA at the time and I found paddling was a great form of low-impact cross-training.

Discovering SUP was a competitive sport sparked my fierce nature and I wanted to learn more about paddling faster and more efficiently.

I excel at teaching and one thing led to another and in 2016 I was asked to join the team at Stand Up Surf Shop to take over the lessons for their SUP School.

It was the quickest decision of my life….and here I am!
