THINGS TO KNOW - what to wear/bring
We recommend light, quick-drying athletic clothing and/or swimsuits. Dress for the weather, layer if necessary.
PLEASE bring your own water - hydration is very important, especially on hot summer days!
sunscreen
hat/sunglasses (make sure they are secure - we are not responsible for items that are lost in the water)
towel & a change of clothes (keep in your car - just in case)
water shoes (optional)
Safety is our first priority! Your instructor is a certified SUP Yoga Instructor and PaddleFit Coach, trained in water safety and rescues, and first aid/CPR certified. All that's required from you is the ability to swim, but more importantly, to have fun! Your instructor will have a dry bag available to hold keys if needed. There are straps on the board to keep water bottles and shoes secure.
