Sarah Blues is a British Canoeing #ShePaddles & Red Ambassador & founder of #PaddleKitHerWay. Known on social media as @plussizepaddler, Sarah's SUP journey made her realise being a size18 -20 was no barrier to participating in paddleboarding and that her body is strong & capable.
Talking to women, Sarah realised that many also perceived their body shape and size as a big barrier too engaging & enjoying sport. And finding paddling kit that fitted wasn't just an issue for larger bodies but for all women. From this, #PaddleKitHerWay was founded.
Each year, Sarah teams up with women SUP Coaches & Leaders from around the UK to provide 'four' Paddle Her Way events. And we are thrilled to have her join us in Nottingham for the East Midlands 2023 event!
