Paddle & Flow pairs a full‑body POUND JAM—an energizing, drum‑inspired cardio, strength and yoga fusion using provided Ripstix—with a calm, guided kayak outing from eNRG Kayaking in Oregon City to glimpse nearby falls. The sequence of sweat and serenity creates a memorable contrast: exertion in the studio, then quiet paddling beside waterfall scenery.

THE WORKOUT

POUND: Full‑Body Drum‑Inspired Cardio

POUND is a JAM session that blends cardio, conditioning and strength moves with yoga and Pilates influences while participants use provided Ripstix to channel a rockstar energy and sweat through the class.

THE RIVER

Guided Kayak Glide to Waterfall Views

After the workout, guests board a provided kayak alongside a guide from eNRG Kayaking to glide peacefully on the river and take in views of the falls—an intentional counterpoint to the earlier high‑energy session.

THE CONTRAST

A Two‑Act Adventure: Sweat Then Stillness

The experience is defined by its contrast: a sweat‑dripping, percussion‑driven workout that primes the body, followed by a placid paddle that lets the river and falls settle the senses.
