Review of Honolulu’s 75-minute paddleboard yoga class, with calm water, small groups, ocean meditation, pricing, tips, and practical details.

“Kelsey was an amazing yoga instructor! She accommodated the beginner level as well as offered challenges for those who had more experience. Doing yoga on paddle-boards ended up being even more fun than I expected! It was great! I had an awesome experience. Would 100% do it again, and again, and again if I could. If only I lived in Hawaii....”

Paddle Haleiwa Bay and the Anahulu River with a private lesson, photos, water, and a good chance to spot Hawaiian green sea turtles.

“My parents had little to no swimming skills and Kate was very accommodating and made sure my parents felt comfortable. The view on the river was gorgeous and with the river’s calm waters, it was the best place to get well acquainted with the board. Kate was very kind, a good teacher, and if that’s your instructor, you have nothing to worry about. We also saw a turtle on the way back that waved at my brother and peeled its head out of the water to say hi. Definitely worth the money and I bet my parents will be talking about the experience for awhile.”
