About Me

Hello! My name is Sophia Jensen.

My sport is sprint canoe racing: an exciting and powerful sport that combines power, balance, endurance, and speed. I am the World Champion since 2018.

The 1936 Berlin Olympics Sprint introduced sprint canoe racing to the world. The 2020 Tokyo Olympics gave women the opportunity to compete in this exciting sport on the Olympic stage. My plan is to race for Canada at the Paris Olympics in 2024.

The moment I put my paddle in the water, I fell in love with sprint canoeing.

In grade six, on the last day of school, the staff from the Cascades club gave a presentation and handed out flyers. The flyers had a photo of all the members on the front, including my good friends. The moment I saw them on the front cover I instantly wanted to be in the next one. That night, I asked my mom to sign me up for the summer camp. Who could guess that 4 years later from that day, I’d be representing Canada at International events?

I am a positive, proud, and powerful athlete. I love the sport of sprint
canoe. I am enthusiastic about being a role model for healthy living and I love to
demonstrate what training and outdoor living can do for the body and the mind.
