SUP Yoga Teacher Training
Teacher training certified by Yoga Alliance Professionals
Yoga emerged more than 5000 years ago from the direct contact of human beings with nature. As a way of knowing oneself better and expanding one’s connection and experience of union with that same nature, recognizing and realizing that there was never a separation other than in thought.
SUP Yoga is a unique way to experience Yoga in direct contact with Nature.
