Description
Gain specialized skills to confidently teach on water, attracting students eager for a new and exciting way to practice yoga and connect with nature.
Discover the calming effects of being on the water and how it can transform the traditional yoga experience into something refreshing and invigorating.
THIS TRAINING WILL TAKE PLACE ON THE WATER. PLEASE SEE THE DESCRIPTION BELOW.
Make a splash this summer in our YogaFit for PaddleBoard 1-day training. This training will challenge the body while renewing the soul. Enjoy breath, movement, and meditation as you learn to adapt to the flow of the water beneath. Find the continuous challenge to balance and the focus required to ground while afloat. When we connect with the yang element of the sun and challenging core work as well as the yin element of water and our own receptive, fluid nature, we create a deep relaxation and sense of peace. Practicing yoga on stand-up paddle boards is both an awesome core workout and a moving meditation. Lying in savasana, with the sound of water lapping at your board, and the feeling of sun kissing your skin, you realize that just like people, the strength of water lies in its ability to yield.
This training will take place on a natural body of water with all the natural elements that come it. There will be alternating indoor and outdoor training periods, so please prepare accordingly.
Be prepared to be in the sun, with any necessary skin protection.
You MUST be able to swim proficiently on your own, without a life preserver. Water activities are an assumed-risk sport. You assume all liabilities for your participation in this training.
Note: The rental/use of the Balance Board is extra, TBD.
