Soak up the natural healing energy of the Blue Ridge with yoga on the water! No experience is necessary and all skill levels are welcome to join us for yoga on the water.
Location: Price Lake - milepost 297 off the Blue Ridge Parkway. We will meet in the parking lot at the boat ramp and amphitheater. From Boone, go south on the parkway for about 5 miles. As you are getting close, you’ll pass Julian Price Park on your right, Price Lake on your left (keep going), the campground office on your right, and then finally you’ll see a brown sign with white letters that says “Boat Rental and Amphitheater” which is where you will turn left into the parking lot. We will meet at the boat RAMP near the first few parking spaces and the boat dock. Please do not go to the boat dock as we will not be using their paddle boards.
Please note: Recreational swimming is NOT allowed at Price Lake. It is okay if you fall in and get back up on your board, but there will NOT be any intentional swimming or jumping off your board.
Every participant is required to have a personal flotation device (PFD) and sounding device on their board at all times. Participants under 13 are required to wear their PFD at all times.
Our maximum class size is 10 people (including the instructor). Classes may fill, so please book in advance to reserve your spot.
Thank you for your cooperation as we follow NPS rules and regulations.
Board Rental or BYOBoard Pricing Options: We have a set of paddleboards that we will set up for you to use for class. Please enter one of the following Promo Codes if you are bringing your own board so A) you can receive a discount and B) we know what equipment we need to have prepared for the class. Please note that if you bring your own board, we will provide your anchor, BUT you will be required to bring your own PFD and sounding device (whistle).
1 Class+Board Rental = $30
1 Class+BYOBoard (you’ll bring your own board and PFD) = $22 (use Promo Code BYOBOARD)
For anyone who would like to practice on the water with us multiple times this season, please take advantage of our 3 class bundle. Please note that this package cannot be shared with others.
3 Classes+Board Rental = $75
3 Classes+BYOBoard (you’ll bring your own board) = $60 (use Promo Code BYOBOARDx3)
What to bring: If you are borrowing one of our boards, it will come equipped with everything you need for the class including a PFD, dry bag for your keys/personal belongings, but please bring your own water bottle and sunscreen.
If you bring your own board, please use the promo codes shown above. If you BYOBoard, please note that you are required to bring your own PFD as well. Anchors will be provided to all participants (even if you BYOBoard).
What to wear: Anything you are comfortable moving and stretching in that you wouldn’t mind getting wet (you will get wet even if you don’t fall in). We recommend moisture-wicking clothing instead of cotton. Wear or bring layers on chillier/windy mornings. A towel and a change of clothes are nice to keep in your car for after the class. Although there are not restrooms, there is a port-a-jons on site for you to use.
Class format: There will be a brief intro to Stand Up Paddleboarding (SUP) and a short paddle to the class location. Once anchored, we will begin our class which will provide several options for all skill levels. After the class, there will be time for a short free play as we paddle back to the boat ramp.
Weather Cancellations: In the event of rain or inclement weather, those registered will receive a cancellation email at least 30 minutes before the class start time (if you don’t receive an email, we are planning on holding the class). The class you purchased will be credited back on your MindBody account with us for you to use until the expiration date. If you are visiting from out of town and will not be able to attend any other scheduled date with us, please let us know so we can provide you with the appropriate refund.
Cancellation policy: Cancellations must be made at least 3 hours prior to class start time in order to use the credit towards another Paddleboard Yoga class. Cancellations made within 3 hours of the class start time will not be eligible for a credit.
Private lessons: Please contact us if you would like to schedule a private Paddleboard Yoga lesson for you or your group. Private SUP Yoga lessons start at $120 and can be held at Price Lake in Blowing Rock, Wildcat Lake in Banner Elk, Watauga Lake in Tennessee, or a location of your choice (upon our approval).
We look forward to practicing on the water with you!
