WHY US?
we are passionate
It’s the best job in the world. Loving what you do, teaching others to do it. After helping pioneer the sport of paddleboarding and SUP Yoga in NC, we're now located in our native Santa Cruz, California — and we continue our mission to spread the JOY of merging yoga and mindfulness with adventures in nature to as many people as possible. Since 2013, we have offered a variety of classes and women’s retreats. From beginner Standup Paddleboard (SUP) lessons, athletic coaching, SUP yoga and meditation classes to corporate team building, tours, clinics, camps and retreats, we’ve offered something for everyone! Lyf Swell has taught hundreds of people including groups from IBM, Duke University and UNC. Our rates INCLUDE QUALITY EQUIPMENT (where applicable) and small class sizes ensure students are safe and get the most out of their instruction.
We are qualified
Your Lyf Swell instructor has decades of experience teaching yoga and meditation on and off the water and is certified by leading athletes, teachers and organizations. Certifications include: HeartMath, WPA level 1, Paddlefit Core, ASI SUP/SUP Yoga, CPR/first aid, water rescue, and we are registered/certified through Yoga Alliance (RYT 500/ERYT 200/YACEP).
we give back
Lyf Swell is dedicated to protecting our earth. We organize beach clean-ups and donate annually to causes that protect our water & natural environment.
Heart-centric Yoga + Meditation
Research shows that the heart has its own independent complex nervous system - its own intelligence - directing and aligning many systems in the body so that they can function in harmony with one another. Through guided heart-focused yoga and mindfulness practices in spaces that deepen our connection with nature, we awaken our heart intelligence. Central to all of our classes is the guiding influence of the heart, leading to a more loving connection with yourself and the world around you.
SUP Yoga
Offered by appointment, SUP Yoga combines standup paddleboarding with the practice of yoga. The element of water will require you to engage additional muscle stabilizers, maintain balance, concentration and add a sense of playfulness to your practice. You’ll have a whole new relaxed perspective when you take your yoga to the H2O.
Mindful Adventures
We love to break molds and explore! Whether it be an eco tour into the woods or the water, a special event or one of our popular retreats, all of our adventures will ease you away from the hustle of life, providing you and your group with the perfect combination of relaxation and fun. Unless otherwise noted, we’ll bring everything you need (we’ll even take professional photos). All you need to bring is your sense of adventure!
