Yoga and water sports both come with a long list of benefits, but have you ever considered mixing them together? Paddleboard yoga allows you to do just that!

Also known as SUP yoga (short for stand up paddleboard yoga), this fun activity combines two amazing workouts into one. Yoga moves are performed on a paddleboard, which should be position on a calm water surface, such as a lake or a large swimming pool.

Paddleboard yoga is fun and challenging, but it might not be the perfect fit for you if you’re a total beginner. You should practice yoga for some time before giving this variation a shot, in order to gain the strength and flexibility required to keep your balance on a paddleboard.

Needless to say, you should be a swimmer if you want to practice SUP yoga, especially if you’re doing it on your own. Even the biggest experts fall off the board sometimes, but water has a calming and refreshing effect, and that’s why so many people want to try this fun activity.
