Stand Up Paddleboard and or Stand up Paddleboard Yoga (SUPY). SUPY (Stand up paddleboard yoga) is a relatively new idea that combines the beauty of the outdoors with the calm and grounding nature of a yoga practice.

Yes. It’s a good idea to have decent swimming skills as you will be on a body of water. While you will be required to wear a life preserver, if you do not know how to swim at all, this is something you would not want to do.

Children under 18 years of age MUST be accompanied by a responsible adult. Children 14– 18 years of age MUST be accompanied by their parent. No exceptions.

You can and you likely will fall at some point in time. Although, not everyone falls off of their boards on the first time! (You might surprise yourself.) Besides - it’s fun! Stay calm and lighthearted. Just enjoy the adventure.

The Tidal Soul experience includes an instruction portion before we even get our feet in the water. This session will introduce you to the equipment, teach you how to paddle, how to stop your vessel from colliding with other objects, how to turn around, how to fall properly and how to get back up. Because we are in nature and there are hazards, it is imperative that you arrive at least 15 minutes prior to launch time to receive this instruction which includes what you will need to avoid while on the water.

Absolutely not! While Tidal Soul is capable of teaching you complex poses, the yoga being offered in your sssion is accessible for beginners, too! If you are an advanced yogi we will ensure that you are safely executing the poses you wish to attempt.

Swimsuits, water shoes, hats, sunglasses. No jeans, metal buckles or chains (that will weigh you down in case you fall). Keep in mind, anything you bring onto your board has a chance of falling off. Do NOT bring valuables. Please wear SUNBLOCK and stay hydrated.

It is highly recommended that you do. The nature of our beautiful waterways presents some unique things, like oyster beds. Oyster beds are extremely sharp and can give a deep cut. We want to avoid situations like that. Wear or do not wear swim shoes at your own risk. No sneakers or shoes with harsh textures that could scratch or ruin the boards will be permitted.

Tidal Soul keeps a small inventory of unisex water shoes, phone cases, sunblock and buggy bands (bug repellant) for your convenience. Drinking water will be available, feel free to bring a reusable container. Please be mindful of our environment and do not bring plastic water bottles or leave trash behind.

Often the sun is very hot so come to class well hydrated. Hydrate before the workout. It is always important to drink plenty of water when exercising. Because it is difficult to carry much on the paddle board and there won’t keep things on the board during the workout, most hydrating will need to be done before and after the workout.
