Megan Cynowa, Founder, Owner, PaddleFit Pro Coach, WPA Instructor, ACA, ICF ITO, USA SUP

As a Tega Cay native, Megan grew up with Lake Wylie in her backyard. Summers consisted of boat rides & water sports. Her background is extensive, yet her passion for exercise and the outdoors brought her full circle in 2014 when launching The Goat Boater. At a very young age her parents pushed her limits in all extracurriculars. By her second year of college she was dancing professionally for the NBA. Her career led her down many paths including managing a gym, personal training, aquatics instruction, marathon runner & triathlete. After traveling the world for 2.5 years she was introduced to SUP Surfing. The Goat Boater, Lake Wylie Paddleboarding is a result of 40 years of love for the water, adventure & sport.
