On Quail Lake, framed by Cheyenne Mountain and the Pikes Peak Front Range, Dragonfly Paddle Yoga runs a deliberately gentle two-hour SUP experience that layers restorative yoga, quartz crystal soundbowls and a lake-ready brunch. The emphasis is slow, steady breathwork and the tactile calm of standing or sitting on a GLIDE Lotus hardboard while native and migratory birds and dragonflies thread the shoreline.

What the day feels like

What the two-hour flow feels like

The session unfolds at an easy pace: check-in, basic paddle instruction, a restorative sequence designed for stability on the GLIDE Lotus hardboard, and the unhurried resonance of quartz crystal bowls. The soundbath and the lake’s quiet merge, and the class closes with a brunch delivered to each board — leaving most participants feeling renewed and more present.
