Escape the ordinary and immerse yourself in a rejuvenating day of movement, mindfulness, and nature at our One-Day Outdoor Paddle & Yoga Retreat. Set against the backdrop of trees, water and open skies, this full-day experience blends adventure and relaxation in perfect harmony.

Your day begins with a stand-up paddle boarding (SUP) session, where you'll glide across calm waters, soaking in the tranquility of nature while learning or refining your paddling technique. After a break and warmed up and connected to the rhythm of the water, you'll transition into a SUP yoga class, balancing body and breath in a playful, floating yoga flow designed for all levels.

After time on the water, you'll return to land for a grounding yoga session, focusing on stretching, breathwork, and mindfulness to deepen your connection with yourself and your surroundings.

Throughout the day, you'll enjoy healthy snacks and a nourishing lunch, prepared to fuel your body and enhance your experience (snacks + lunch provided)

Whether you're seeking a refreshing escape, a new challenge, or a way to reconnect with yourself and nature, this retreat offers a unique and unforgettable journey.
