How the session unfolds
You begin on shore with clear, practical coaching—how to stand, paddle, balance and move with confidence on a board. When the group is ready you launch for a gentle paddle across the calm loch; once anchored, the practice shifts to a simple, grounding yoga flow on the boards that emphasizes breath, stability and presence.
