What the day feels like
What the experience feels like
The session moves deliberately from shore to water: a short orientation and on-land paddle lesson shifts into a gentle glide downriver, then into a focused hour of guided movement on anchored boards. The transition from paddling to practice and finally to a floating savasana with Tibetan singing bowls frames the class as part outdoor expedition, part restorative yoga practice.
