On the sheltered water off Antioch, SUP Yoga turns a typical yoga class into an aquatic practice: a dockside lesson eases participants onto boards, then a gentle warm-up and slow flow—featuring sun salutations and static poses—unfolds on the water, offering a quiet, immersive two-hour session.

THE TEACHER

Katie Jo — experienced, grounded instruction

Classes are led by Katie Jo, a teacher who completed a 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training and SUP Yoga teacher training in 2016; her approach weaves yogic principles, pranayama breathing and accessible asanas into the session.

THE PRACTICE

Slow, steady flows and board-held poses

After a dockside lesson and warm-up, the class progresses through a slow yoga flow on the boards that includes sun salutations and static poses designed to promote relaxation and connection with the natural setting.

THE SETTING

Dock-to-water format for a calm on-water practice

The two-hour session begins dockside with instruction before participants head out onto the water for the main SUP Yoga sequence, letting the surrounding water and light shape the pace of the class.
