What personal aspirations do you have for the next 12 months ? My aspirations for the next 12 months are to paddle as much as possible , go on as many river trips as I can , and continue developing my paddling ability . Getting out in nature and exploring new rivers is why I love white water kayaking so much , and it always motivates me to get out on the water .
I ’ d love to eventually gain my White Water Leader qualification to continue encouraging women and girls to paddle , especially white water kayaking .
If you ’ re feeling inspired to try white water kayaking , find a club near you . You can keep up to date with Meg ’ s white water paddles and her time as a # ShePaddles Ambassador over on Instagram @ megeynon
What advice would you give other women and girls wanting to try white water kayaking ? Have a go ; don ’ t be afraid to try ! To enjoy white water , you don ’ t have to run waterfalls and challenging rivers . Join a white waterorientated club that will develop the skills and confidence needed in a safe environment . There are so many great coaches and leaders within canoe clubs who can inspire confidence to get out on the white water . Women-only white water events are so supportive , and I definitely recommend attending them to try white water whilst making new friends ! paddleuk . org . uk 65
