GIVING BACK
The Cape Cod Bay Challenge is a 36 mile Stand Up Paddle Crossing from Plymouth to Wellfleet that Gillian has participated in since 2010. She has helped raise money for Christopher’s Haven, a non-profit organization that provides housing for families who bring their child to Boston’s Mass General Hospital for cancer treatment.

Gillian leads a very well-rounded SUP certification program, and the written material is informative and easy to follow. The practical training includes yoga and fitness as well as water safety. Gillian is extremely knowledgeable about the sport of paddle boarding, and she offers great advice on improving your stroke which not only makes you a faster paddler, but keeps your shoulders safe; and as a teacher, your students will appreciate that. Gillian is easy-going and fun. The 4-day training was not only a wonderful learning experience but also a blast! I would, without hesitation, recommend Paddle Into Fitness if you’re considering a SUP yoga/fitness certification program.
