Seminole Heights Eat, Drink & Shop Local Guide

Seminole Heights Local Menu

The following content is a collaborative effort between Seminole Heights Patch and the businesses of Seminole Heights. By producing a digital version of the Eat, Drink & Shop Local Guide, we hope to share the information among even more people in Seminole Heights.

Urban Kai Expanding Stand Up Paddle Board Community

The business is located on the Hillsborough River.

Yoga, boxing and martial arts are a few Tampa Bay options for couch potatoes or athletes-in-training who want to stay in shape. Aimee and Michael Conlee hope to add one more fitness routine to the region's vocabulary: Stand up paddle boarding.

"It can be aggressive or as hard as you want to make it, or subtle and graceful as you want.” We recently talked to the Conlee's at their shop, 2305 N. Willow Avenue, about how they got into the paddling business and …
