– Standup Paddleboarding (SUP) is one of the fastest growing sports in the world, providing both a great workout as well as a calmer enjoyment of nature than straight out surfing or paddling. Combine that with Yoga and you are working your core hard, not to mention immensely improving your balance and flexibility.
Paddleboarding + Yoga = SUP Yoga.
The problem with SUP Yoga? Weather. It’s a water sport so obviously it is weather dependent and in countries such as Canada, weather isn’t always on our side, even during the summer season.
Julie Thayer, a Yoga instructor from the Toronto area decided to stretch the summer SUP Yoga season to a year-round season, by creating the Karma SUPtra boards. The Karma SUPtra boards are paddleboards which emulate the water experience in a regular Yoga studio (or wherever you choose to use them) via the support of a series of inflatable cushions which increase or decrease the stability of the board. The Karma SUPtra boards also have optimized dimensions for Yoga poses and a slip-free surface. Best of all, the boards are 100% Canadian made.
So now you are not only getting an incredible workout but the added water stimulation (without actually needing to be on water) works your core hard, and improves your balance and flexibility for that next outdoor SUP season.
Julie’s been teaching SUP-Yoga on the Karma SUPtra boards for over a year now and the reviews are amazing. She is currently making her boards per individual order but with the takeoff of her crowdfunding campaign on Canadian Crowdfunding portal PinUp Campaigns we hope to see them produced in larger numbers. You can check out the campaign and order a board at via the PinUp site at www.pinupcampaigns.com.
PinUp Campaigns is a brand new crowdfunding portal which posts only a limited number of handpicked, Canadian campaigns, helping to promote each campaign which they choose to feature.
