All Paddle 2 Fitness sessions are coaching sessions where you the paddler will be guaranteed to get 1 on 1 time with the coach each and every session. Every training session is designed to improve your fitness, downwind skills, paddling knowledge and race tactics.
Our 30 years has taught us that not everyone can train three to four times a day. So when you purchase a weekly training program from us, we send you the template so you can let us know; when you can train and what disciplines you wan to improve. Then we design a personalised program just for you and your goals.
Paddle 2 Fitness believes in healthy eating. We are happy to assist you in a healthy eating plan where there is no calorie counting.
