HELLO!
I’m Caroline
and I’m passionate about sharing my love of the water and of movement with you!
A love of the water has been a core value of mine for many years and I love sharing the amazing fusion that is SUP Yoga & Fitness. I’ve been a Personal Trainer, windsurfing instructor and Yoga teacher for many years and more recently added Paddleboard Instructor and SUP Yoga teacher to that – which means I can help many more people get on the water, and encourage healthy movement and fitness activities while being out in the fresh air on the water and while having fun!
WHAT TO EXPECT
We start with a mindful centring practice (this may be sitting, lying down or standing and becoming aware of your breath – a chance to check in and shed the noise of the day!)
A full body warm up that helps to lubricate joints & activate muscles in preparation for the more dynamic phases while releasing excess tension
A sun salutation flow sequence (I have created some variations of the traditional sequences that help to balance the practice and offers a variety of options for different needs)
Standing poses including balancing poses and often arm balances (always optional of course!)
Followed by floor poses – some that strengthen your core, some that stretch things out and some that help you unwind and finally..
All-important shavasana, where you get to assimilate the benefits of your practice and just chill out before getting back into your daily life after class

SUP Yoga is a fabulous way to practice yoga! A fast-track to slowing down, connecting with nature and the energy of the water while also experiencing an extra core and balance challenge.

As a man with the fuller figure I was very sceptical about SUP Yoga. All I can say is absolutely loved it. My wife and I had a private class as a birthday treat. Caroline is great very knowledgable and great teaching style. Definitely be going again.
