SUP & Soul

SUP & Soul Stand up (sit down, kneel down, lie down!) paddle coach, nature retreat facilitator & circle host.

We teach clients to paddle board in beautiful surroundings at Weir Wood Reservoir, the River Adur or along the coast in Sussex between Hove and Shoreham. Our sessions are friendly, welcoming and importantly safe both physically and spiritually. It can be intimidating trying a new sport for the first time so we specialise in making our clients feel super comfortable and relaxed from the get go. We host Water & Wellness retreats days and other rewilding events powered by nature. Our events generally centre around nature and the feminine energy combining some element of paddle boarding, wild swimming, SUP yoga and life coaching. We welcome all women (cis and trans) as well as non-binary people who are comfortable in a space that centres the experience of women. We offer bespoke business and team related coaching and connection workshops/retreats that help nurture and support leaders and teams in bringing their purpose-driven business and projects to life. We also offer teams the opportunity to connect in the real world through paddle boarding adventure trips or paddle cleanups where they can help give back to our waterways too. We are Sussex based and can be found mostly at Weir Wood Reservoir in Forest Row, on the River Adur in Shoreham, along the coast between Hove and Shoreham or in a woods somewhere hosting fireside gatherings and storytelling experiences.

Thanks to for delivering this lil beauty over the weekend .

Challenge No. 1 - standing up 🤣

I’m nervous to get out and give her a whirl - in typical fashion the forecast is not in my favour this week and then I’m away until end of September so I can’t take her out for her maiden voyage for aaaages!

I shall report back end of September.

Today I swapped the board for a morning on my trusty steed Liviana for my first ever group ride - complete with sprints, hill climbs, great company, good coffee, beach stretch and finished with a delicious and well earned sea dip!

Thanks Team Pink and our most wonderful and inspiring host and coach Leonie of fame - I felt so safe and uncomfortably challenged.

Can happily confirm my confidence has grown with road riding, gear changing and hills!

Can’t wait for next time 🚵🏼‍♂️💨

Amazing week of enjoying the stunning weather and living by the sea with swims and paddles with some of my besties plus making new friends plus enjoying some much needed solo paddles.

Hot damn I love living in

Morning world!

When I woke up this morning I wasn’t expecting to share my morning with thousands of tiny fish 🐟 🐟 🐟

And I’m pretty sure there was a seal following me underwater based on the movement and the bubbles but I can’t be 💯 certain - I didn’t actually see him but I like to think it was our resident Sammy the Seal 🦭

Paddle followed by obligatory swim - oh my god. Amazing.

Wishing you all a beautiful day from the 🩵

I’m heading out for a paddle boarding mini break/holiday in Slovenia with a good friend of mine who hosts trips all over the world.

Due to a last minute cancellation we have a space available on our women only Slovenia SUP trip from 10-14 Sep 2025.

The trip is hosted and organised by the wonderful soul, Edina of Balatonsup fame.

At the moment we are a group of 6 super lovely, fun, adventurous and welcoming women (mostly English with a Welsh, Norwegian and Hungarian mixed in for good measure!) are you our 7th Wonder Woman?

Between us we have a range of SUP abilities from newly introduced to very experienced - this won’t be hardcore paddling holiday, more soaking it all up and enjoying gentle paddling (and other activities) with the option to go harder if so desired.

We don’t all know each other (yet!!) - so you won’t be joining an existing group of friends which can sometimes feel intimidating. I am the connector who has brought the group together - so I’m confident everyone will click beautifully.

If you’re keen but don’t want to come along there is space for 2 people to join us - it’d be same price per person regardless.

The price includes 4 nights and 5 days of paddling with hotel, SUP boards + all SUP kit, local transport, breakfast and some meals and is just £650 (this price excludes international travel/flights). Much cheaper than a lot of other SUP travel operators!!

I met Edina on my SUP Instructor course in 2018 and we have been firm friends ever since. We’ve paddled together in Portugal, Israel and more recently in Norway - she’s a very special and beautiful soul and I can’t wait to experience Slovenia with her in Sep.

Edina has been hosting worldwide paddle trips ever since we qualified together in 2018 and she has been hosting this Slovenia trip since 2019 so she’s super knowledgeable about our location and itinerary!

We’ll also be enjoying hikes, optional zip lining and white water rafting - these last two are booked and paid for locally with the supplier and not through Balaton SUP.

See the link for all the details and DM me if you’d like to chat about it some more or if you’re already sold and wanna come along. It’s gonna be EPIC!!!! 🤙🏽

If you can’t join but know someone who might be interested feel free to share with them.

Please note this is not a SUP & Soul arranged trip - I’m only promoting on here due to a last minute cancellation and thought there might be someone in my S&S network who is keen to join us! 💙

All the deets are here:

After a two year adventure into Somerset life I’m excited to have found my way back home, to Sussex!

We’ve been busy settling back into Sussex life and redecorating our new home in Lancing - our new basecamp 🏡

And of course - getting back on the water! Here’s a few snippets of my re-intro to Sussex paddle life 🤟🏼

I’m excited for this next chapter of life in Lancing.

I’m not sure what my plans are for SUP & Soul yet - need to renew my quals but if you’re in the area and fancy a social paddle let me know. It’d be so wonderful to paddle with friends again 🥳

Hope life has been good to yall and you’re all still paddling! I’d absolutely love to reconnect with my local paddler crew so do get in touch 🫶🏼

Eek so excited - my copy has just arrived!!

I saw this book mentioned by a fellow water enthusiast (but sadly I can’t remember who now!!) and knew I simply had to devour it for myself 🩵

Can’t wait to get stuck in…I shall have to find a lil beachfront, tuck myself up under a duvet with the door wide open and settle down for a day in the van with the waves rolling in while I read mmmmmmm lush 🌊

New paddle location found in beautiful staying at in - a lovely campsite complete with its own launch site for river and Poole harbour paddles.

Thanks to and for a superb weekend on the water plus thunderstorms, Jurassic coast cliff side walks, freshly picked blackberries, BBQ & bubbles 🍾
