Flow is a state of mind, find your Flow, then Live2Flow…

‘The Flow State is being so involved in an activity that nothing else seems to matter: Every action, movement and thought flows inevitably from the previous one. Your whole being is involved, you’re using your skills to the utmost and the result is a feeling of spontaneous joy.’ – Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi

Live2Flow is dedicated to inspiring adventure and providing high quality coaching and leadership to help people find their Flow through outdoor sports.  Please read my blog posts for inspiration and advice, or check out the training and holiday options offered to see where your next adventure could take you…

Holidays

Isn’t it just wonderful to get away from it all?  But for some of us, sitting around by the pool just doesn’t cut it, we want to get away to do what we are passionate about in beautiful locations.  That is the aim of a Live2Flow holiday; it is still a holiday (not a boot… Continue reading Holidays

I appreciate how much time and effort you put into the week; the airport collection, the chalet, your local knowledge and of course the Soca and our days spent paddling.  A huge thank you for your thought, time, planning and continual encouragement throughout each day which in turn was motivational, inspiring and confidence building. I didn’t think for one minute I would paddle G4 water and I still feel the buzz and sense of achievement now…

Thanks for making my first alpine kayaking trip such an amazing experience…

Simon, thank you for the great week in Slovenia, your coaching, the excellent organisation and the fun!

Fabulous Slovenia holiday…
