Join us for a calm and quite session of SUP Yoga surrounded by the beautiful mangroves on the Indian Ocean. Sacred Space Retreats offers hatha and vinyasa yoga, including meditation and a nice SUP savasana to conclude every practice. Being on the water requires students to be fully present and focused on their own practice, while connecting with nature and enjoying the challenge of keeping their balance. We’ll practice mindfulness as we work on strength building, stretching, balancing, and complete relaxation.
SUP Yoga is suitable for all levels from complete beginners to advanced practitioners and your class will be developed according to your experience with both SUP and yoga.
