A SUP Yoga Retreat In Beautiful Byron Bay
Written by Maxine Smiles -Cooke /

I’ve got reasonably good cardio fitness and stamina through Zumba and walking, my core – needed for balancing on a paddle board – is my weak spot. Would I even be able to stand up, let alone pick up a paddle for the river expedition? And, as for SUP yoga, the very idea seemed nigh on impossible.
