Another day full of SUP Yoga and Intros at Leybourne - and what a brilliant one! The sun was hot (but it's easy to cool down on the lake!)
Thanks to the whole team and everybody who joined me on the water ππΌ
We have one more left in September...check out www.leybournelakewatersports.co.uk for details.
It was lovely to see so many people enjoying the river this morning (and especially lovely to have the River Beult all to ourselves!) π
It was a super windy day at Leybourne, "super" being the main word there! We adapted the SUP Yoga, but everybody still did brilliantly, and we fought hard in the intro session to get over to the wind shadow on the far side of the lake.
Brilliant day all round! Thanks to everybody who joined me (and to the awesome team at Leybourne!) ππΌ
Dreamy morning on the river π₯° and a half-way coffee

A belated Merry Christmas everybody! Hope you found some magic, whatever the big day looked like for you.
Mine involved a wonderful (and chilly) paddle with my brother for Boxing Day afternoon, mainly spent getting very excited about the number of kingfisher sightings we had!
Wishing you a very Happy New Year too, hope it's full of adventure, health and happiness βΊοΈ
Love
Helen xx

I felt so sad that the weather forecast was against us for my last scheduled SUP Yoga and Intros at Leybourne yesterday ... And then the forecast changed and it turned out to be a glorious morning! Typical!
So, I headed out early on the river. I saved this little pigeon from drowning (I paddled for 15mins with him/her on my board drying out, found a safe spot at Whatman Park to leave him/her, and was so happy to find him/her able to get up and walk about when I returned 2 hrs later!)
Also had a lovely coffee at the Toll House Cafe with my brother, niece, Nick and Holly before paddling back.
It turned out to be a really lovely Sunday ... But I missed the lake! Hope to be back again soon π€πΌ
