Sue Fox has been in the outdoor recreation and retreat industry for over a decade bringing people of all ages and abilities to the water, both locally and world-wide. She first fell in love with her favorite water activity, paddleboarding, while living in Maui, HI. There, when not paddle surfing in her free time, she brought clients out to the water to experience the physical and emotional benefits of connecting with the water. She integrated this with a variety of wellness classes taught on the beach, including yoga, Tai Chi and Pilates. These days her personal passion and favorite discipline to teach, is whitewater SUP…a small but growing niche. After 14 years away, Sue made her way back to Oregon where she settled in Bend, working with Tumalo Creek Kayak & Canoe, an “all things paddling” center. There, she has had the opportunity to support and instruct literally hundreds of people wanting to get on the water. As an ACA certified instructor, her focus starts with fun, yet always has an eye toward safety. In addition to working with TCKC Sue guides water-based adventure retreats, integrating her past work in wellness and paddleboarding, to bring clients a comprehensive experience of fun and adventure. These retreats have brought her to various locations including Mexico, Panama, South and Central America.
