A SUP Yoga Retreat In Beautiful Byron Bay

Written by Maxine Smiles -Cooke /

Two emotions coursed through my body when Red Paddle Co’s invitation to a SUP yoga retreat dropped into my inbox – excitement and terror. I’d been wanting to try stand-up paddle boarding for a long while, and where better than beautiful Byron Bay. But SUP yoga… how would this work out when I hadn’t even mastered the SUP bit yet?

I’ve got reasonably good cardio fitness and stamina through Zumba and walking, my core – needed for balancing on a paddle board – is my weak spot. Would I even be able to stand up, let alone pick up a paddle for the river expedition? And, as for SUP yoga, the very idea seemed nigh on impossible.
