Christopher Crowhurst

I live in Minnesota, USA. Married, with two girls, both of whom are growing up too fast. Learning the Inuit paddle strokes, rolls and rescues and apply yoga to those movement is my passion. You can read about it in my blog Qajaq Rolls Blog. I am equally passionate about passing on those skills to others, especially my girls. In 2014 we started Qajaq Camp, a non profit training camp where we share our paddling skills and passions with other paddlers. In recent years Yoga and veganism have grown in importance to me. Applying the practice of yoga to my professional life as well as paddling and mentoring I am learning to be present and choose how to react, creating greater calm and balance. Veganism is one way in which I have chosen to respond to our global environmental crises. You can read more about my thoughts on Consciousness in my other blog Conscious Strokes.I thank daily my practice of yoga, meditation, veganism and my family for helping me stay alive in this complex and beautiful world.
