i'M Sancha
I've been paddle boarding since 2016. I started as a mother to three needing sometime and something for myself.
So I nervously booked a SUP lesson in Lyme Regis where I instantly fell in love the freedom and sense of adventure. Within a week I had managed to pick up a secondhand board and started to explore my local water ways. I was lucky to have the amazing Jurassic Coast on my doorstep but I had very little knowledge in Sea conditions and the neccesary safety equipment needed. Next I signed up for an online course to learn about Sea Safety conditions for paddle boarding and joined the Jurassic SUP group based in Weymouth where I learnt more about the equipment and was introduced to some stunning places to paddle. After a couple of years I started venturing further wanting to explore as many locations as possible. I joined the SUP Bath group who took me to the River Wye and River Avon. The Real Dorset SUP group to explore the Purbeck Coast, Lulworth Cove and Old Harrys rock and SUP with Steph for locations in Cornwall. Then came the drive for SUP challenges like HEAD OF THE DART, SUP THE CREEK, SUP,BIKE,RUN and my absolute favourite the TRENT100 |
After all of that exploring, adventuring and succeeding within challenges I trained as an instructor to share my love of SUP and to encourage others.
