Coach Kanoa - A Fitness & Surf Advocate for Curvy Women
Listen now
Description
Kanoa Greene describes herself as a plus-size surfer, adventurer and fitness coach. She believes plus-size women can do hard things at any weight, shape or size, and she walks her talk by living her mantra daily - “Fitness is about seeing what this body can DO - not to see what it can look like." Prior to 2015, Kanoa says she hadn't even taken a nature walk, and certainly only day dreamed about surfing because she never saw women like her in the water. She took the leap after a major medical set-back that she now looks at as a gift!  Kanoa helps women of all colors, shapes and sizes gain the strength, agility and endurance they need to live their best and wildest adventures. Breaking down barriers and stereotypes, she has created the world's first Surf & Yoga Retreat for plus-size women and is continuously advocating for size inclusivity and representation within the fitness, fashion and active outdoor industries.
