Stand Up Paddling Yoga at SUP

Kick things up a notch by paddling out to sea and performing basic yoga asanas (from sun salutations to back bridges) while balancing on a 10-foot long board. This 60-minute session is more intensive than regular yoga because you’ll end up working your core to keep your balance. The good news is, even if you do end up capsizing the board, you just fall into the water. Think of it as a nice way to cool off.
