"Be Kind to Yourself" SUP Yoga & Mindfulness Event at Castor Bay On Sunday 18 October

As the weather warms up, we start seeing the ocean as a playground, and it seems only natural to celebrate this with another fun Pod wellness event!

Pod: Be Kind To Yourself is a day of SUP, SUP Yoga, and Mindfulness workshops with organic raw food by SIP Kitchen, massage, and SUP Prehab Q&A with Pinc and Steel cancer rehab physios. www.supsnz.com/events/pod

It is aimed at all levels of paddler - from 'terrified (never paddled before)' to 'ready to turn pro’,  and takes place at the beautiful Castor Bay Beach on Sunday 18th October.

We have limited spaces (total 48) and the earlybird ticket price is $169 - before 30 September, or $199 after.

Natalie and Victoria are organising the event, which is the third in a popular and successful series that included “Keep Calm and PaddleOn” last year and the “Pod Wellness Retreat” the previous summer.  
 

"We wanted to hold the event in October as a way of supporting Pink October, International breast cancer awareness month, because we truly believe that stress and exercise play a critical role in your overall health and wellbeing, as well as regular breast checks,” says Ms Stuart.

A portion of proceeds from the event will go to Pinc and Steel Cancer Rehabilitation Trust for the PaddleOn program, which kicks off again 2 November for men and women with all types of cancer.  www.paddleon.co.nz
