Paddle2Fitness Squad Sessions

Join Brisbane Paddling Club for their squad sessions led by Julian Norton-Smith, the Head Coach. These sessions cater to both beginners and experienced paddlers, making them perfect for anyone looking to improve their skills on the water. Whether you're just starting out or have been kayaking for years, there's a session that suits you.

On Tuesdays, the squad session picks up the pace for those who enjoy a faster challenge. If you prefer a more relaxed atmosphere, the morning session is a bit slower and offers more light during the winter months. To ensure you're ready to go, make sure to arrive 15 minutes before the session to warm up.

One of the great things about Brisbane Paddling Club is the opportunity to explore stunning locations while paddling. With sessions taking place at Moreton Bay, Sunshine Coast, and Gold Coast, you'll truly experience the beauty of these areas. Keep in mind that the specific location may change depending on weather conditions, so be ready for an adventure!

If you're up for even more paddling opportunities, Paddle2Fitness also organises downwinders through a WhatsApp group for all members. These downwinders are a fantastic way to challenge yourself and enjoy the thrill of kayaking in new and exciting conditions.

For those who prefer open water sessions, Paddle2Fitness offers squad sessions on Monday and Friday mornings at Currumbin, Gold Coast. This provides a great alternative to mix up your training routine and try out different waters.

Membership at Paddle2Fitness also comes with additional perks. For a monthly subscription fee of $39.95, you'll have access to unlimited weekly squad sessions in both Brisbane and Gold Coast. That's a lot of paddling potential! Plus, you'll also gain access to their online platform, which offers a range of training programs, videos, podcasts, and home gym sessions. It's like having your own personal coach right at your fingertips.

Speaking of coaches, Julian Norton-Smith, the Principal of Paddle2Fitness, is an experienced and highly accomplished coach. With over 20 years of experience and multiple championship titles to his name, you can trust that you'll receive top-notch guidance under his leadership. Julian holds two level 2 coaching certificates in sprint canoeing and surf life-saving, so you know you're in good hands.

Don't worry if you don't have your own equipment just yet. Julian can provide you with a ski and paddle to get you started on your kayaking journey. This means you can jump right in without any hesitations.

So whether you're a seasoned paddler looking for a new challenge or a complete beginner wanting to try something new, Brisbane Paddling Club has got you covered. With squad sessions tailored to different skill levels and stunning locations to explore, it's an opportunity you won't want to miss. Join Paddle2Fitness and dive into the wonderful world of kayaking!
