We definitely covered a lot during last week’s session! However, “A” introducing Ena to board rescues definitely needs a little refining 😂😂

I guess it’s been a long winter, and “A” has forgotten a few of the finer details 🤔

They’re still learning regardless, but listening to instruction could use a little work too. Dealing with a very giggly, noisy casualty certainly didn’t help! 😅😅

Board rescues are an important part of our SUP sessions. They’re not easy, but understanding the process definitely makes it easier 😀

We will continue to spend time over the comming months working on the different aspects of water rescue 👌

If you have kids who would like to join us next term, then why don't you get in touch. Homeschooled or otherwise we have sessions for all.

PM, email [email protected], or call 0458 164 138 to discuss your options.

I look forward to hearing from you 💙

“And what technically is the point?” 😂

Honestly… you’ve got to love the questions that come out of a six-year-old’s mouth!

Watch the video through and see if you can hear Ena asking this very important question 🤔

Well, Ena, the point is actually learning about balance, coordination, mobility, strength, board control and how to manoeuvre on the water & so much more; but more importantly, having fun while doing it! 🤩

As the almighty “A” wisely said: “practice makes perfect!” and he’s not wrong! 🙌

They absolutely loved this session, especially the bit where they got to bounce around in the boat wake! 🌊😂

When you’re homeschooling, extracurricular activities can be about so much more than simply doing an activity. It’s about building skills, confidence, resilience, coordination, independence… and making some brilliant memories along the way 💙

If you have homeschooled children who would benefit from joining us on the water for way more than just a stand up paddleboarding session [SUP], get in touch!

PM, email [email protected], alternatively give me a call on 0458 164 138 to discuss options.

🏄‍♀️🌊 Learning, moving, exploring and having fun — all on the water 💙

Paddling with a pilates ball encourages correct form and challenges balance 👌

Slowing down the paddle movement and exaggerating the reach improves strength & technique; it also ensures the kids hinge at the waist, engage their core and use the required bigger leg muscles to power the board forward 💪

"A" demonstrated beautifully for Ena how to paddle with the ball. Practice makes perfect, and their hard work and technique improvement, is seen in the video 🤩🤩

If you think your kids could benefit from joining us out on the water then why don't you get in touch?

I look forward to hearing from you 💙

What a stunning morning we had 👌

“A” is setting the standard for our forthcoming summer skills sessions. With his brother off the water again, “A” is taking the opportunity to progress, and very quickly, without feeling the pressure to compete.

Everyone’s a winner in my school, but having big brother out of the picture has given “A” the space to grow, develop his confidence and really find his own path.

And he’s absolutely flying with all the paddle skills I set 🤩

I think it's fair to say my homeschooled kids had a SUPer session this week! 🏄‍♂️

We had perfect conditions to build strength and stamina while still having lots of fun.

"A" was like the Duracell bunny — there was no catching him! 😂

"H" was recovering after a few weeks' rest following a suspected fractured elbow. Looking at him here, you'd never know he'd spent three weeks in a half cast and sling! 💪

Ena is a right chatterbox but is always determined to keep up with the boys! 😅

The water may still be a little cool, but "A" demonstrated a rescue jump for Ena. He actually surprised himself by completing it! 😂 Ena gave it a go too, but wasn't keen. We'll revisit it when the water is a little warmer.

A rescue jump is a technique used to enter the water quickly while keeping your head up and your eyes on the casualty. It involves taking a large step forward into a split-leg stance and bringing your legs and arms together as you enter the water, helping you stay afloat rather than submerging deeply.

The technique is designed for rapid, safe entry when initiating a rescue, while maintaining visual contact with the person in distress. You never know when you might need to enter water to help someone, especially when you don't know the depth.

Ena also practised a self-rescue, another important element of stand up paddleboarding [SUP].

We don't just paddleboard — I'm teaching lifelong skills whilst having fun in the great outdoors! 😁

If you have kids who would like to join our sessions, get in touch via PM, email [email protected], or alternatively give me a call on 0458 164 138 to discuss your options.

I look forward to hearing from you! 💙

Safe paddling is about more than your equipment, the weather, wind and tides.

One of the most important things to consider is the body of water you're planning to paddle, especially when delivering sessions to newcomers.

Earlier this week I met up with youth leaders from Rockhampton Presbyterian Church at their Pelican Point campsite on Callide Dam.

They’re planning to introduce kids to canoeing during their upcoming camp weekend, so we took the opportunity to revisit the location, look at water access & egress, assess the water in the paddle area and look at some of the potential hazards. It had been a while since they’d last been there. We were blessed with perfect conditions 👌

Matt had previously contacted me to discuss emergency procedures, risk assessment and some of the local knowledge around wind and water conditions.

Local knowledge matters. It comes from research, talking to other water users, careful observation and safe, slow exploration; entrapment and other hazards can occur on any waterway, anywhere around the world.

Knowing your paddling location before you get on the water can make your session more enjoyable, help you make better decisions and, most importantly, help keep you and your group safer.

So before you launch, take a moment to look around and ask yourself, "what could be lying beneath the water?" You might not be able to see the hazard until it’s too late! 🤔

If you'd like to understand more about water & weather safety don't hesitate to get in touch. PM, email [email protected], or call 0458 164 138 to discuss options.

Know your site. Know your risks. Paddle safe.

How good are these kids?! 💙

Smashing out a 3km paddle, even young Ena, who is still very new to SUP, didn’t let that hold her back! 💥

Have you been looking for something a little different for your homeschoolers?

Our “on the water PE lessons” are a fun way for kids to get active, build confidence, develop new skills and enjoy being outdoors 🌊🏄‍♀️

If you have kids who would benefit from some SUP based PE, drop me a PM, email [email protected], or give me a call on 0458 164 138 to chat about your options.

I’d love to hear from you! 💙

Thank you Balanced Brushes for the video 🫶
