All About Paddling

All About Paddling All About Paddling provides knowledge about all things kayaking and canoeing, creating confidence.

After over 16 years of engaging in a range of roles in the canoe and kayak industry, including getting to travel Qld and Nthn NSW to talk about and sell all things canoe and kayak, personal paddling, delivering paddling programs and running a canoe and kayak manufacturing/retail business, I made a move to launch my own brand - 'All About Paddling' in 2016. Through All About Paddling, I aim to create confidence in paddlers of all levels through sharing the knowledge I have gained over my lifetime of paddling. Keep posted for tips and hints, adventure, success on an AAP program, ideas of places to paddle and heaps more!

I have just spent a few days working with teachers in Northern New South Wales from Wollumbin and Murwillumbah. What a beautiful place!

It is the first time I have had to walk around a Canefield to get to the river!
And also the first time I have done qualification training in inflatable kayaks which to my surprise paddled quite well!

The young people who benefit from this outcome going to have so much fun !!

I came across this photo ! Here’s a snapshot of me in the bow of this canoe…. looking by my attitude and hairstyle and the age of my little sister in the middle, I must have been around 13 years old. That’s Desley Steele in the stern, and check out the PFD on the guy in the kayak.!
