What is SUP Yoga?
SUP yoga, short for Stand-Up Paddleboard yoga, is a practice that combines traditional yoga postures with stand-up paddleboarding. Instead of practicing on a stable mat, SUP yoga takes place on a floating paddleboard, usually in calm bodies of water like lakes, rivers, or the ocean. The paddle board adds an element of challenge and instability, requiring you to engage their core muscles for balance and focus.
