Paddle fun and fitness

IT may be winter but with the beautiful Noosa climate and scenery, it doesn’t mean it’s a time to curl up inside and veg out. In fact for new owners of Kayak Noosa, Erica Hamp and Tracey Horan it’s a great time to get active.
Erica and Tracey are both passionate about paddling and have been involved in paddle sports for over 20 years at competitive, club administration and coaching levels.
“Purchasing Kayak Noosa has enabled us to share our love of paddling by helping others to experience ski, kayak and stand up paddleboard via five avenues – tours, groups, hire, coaching and sales,” they said.
“We run a women on water session Monday mornings, a fantastic opportunity for women of all ages to paddle socially in a safe and supportive environment. Thursday mornings is a mixed social session. On Wednesdays, we run a joint paddling session for Adventure Racers with Jan and Kim from Tri Adventure.
“We’ve also joined forces with Kelly from Body IQ to offer SUP/Kayak yoga/fitness on water sessions. Kelly is an excellent instructor, and these sessions are suitable for anyone who wants to develop core strength and flexibility while enjoying the unique benefits of being in the open air.
“Think of us as your gym on the water.”
