Remember last week when I went to 3 different places to try and get my disposable waterproof camera developed?  Well the RESULTS ARE IN.  Check out our fun day SUPing!

Easy does it…slowly, slowly…STAND UP paddleboard SUCCESS!

Paddled out to the kelp bed and used the kelp to anchor our boards for yoga.

The time when Alice was paddling to shore, got picked up by a scary giant wave and took this picture of me…

We’re what’s up, SUP!

alice wears: lolli swim high-waist bottom (similar here) and target push up halter top
christine wears: american apparel watermelon bathing suit (here and solid colors here)

I finally popped my SUP cherry (which I recently learned stands for Stand Up Paddleboard).  And it was SO MUCH FUN.  And scary.  But mostly fun.  As someone who loves yoga, yoga on a paddleboard provides a whole new level of balance challenges.  Who ever thought of this crazy (and genius) idea of doing yoga on a 10×3 ft board over a mildly rocky sea?  There may be nothing more tranquil (and simultaneously terrifying) about being out there surrounded by beautiful nature. (my thought bubble: don’t think about sharks, don’t think about sharks, don’t think about sharks. does that look like a fin to you?).  Thankfully with my beginner’s luck I did not topple overboard this time and become shark bait.  All irrational fears aside, if you are ever the slightest bit curious about SUP, I highly recommend it!  Even if you are a landlubber like me.  Still not convinced?  Here are 10 more reasons why you should try yoga on a stand up paddleboard.

Special shout out to our fellow adventure seeking buddies, kathy and jennie for joining us on our first SUP yoga excursion!  Can’t wait to do it again 🙂

Hey Girl, Namaste

Yoga can be tricky with lots of weird sounding technical names for poses. Let’s begin.IMG_9672

this is called “how-I-would-catch-my-fall-if-I-had-barbie-legs”.IMG_9695

this is called “can-I-keep-my-face-out-of-dog-poop?”IMG_9698

this is called “my-life-is-over-I-face-planted-in-dog-poop”.IMG_9710

this is called “baby seal” with a “someone’s-feet-really-smell” expression…IMG_9712

this is called “riding-a-surfboard”.IMG_9716

this is called “I-wonder-if-my-armpits-smell”.IMG_9724

this is called “I scored a perfect 10 in gymnastics dismount”.IMG_9738

christine wears:

dress | target (available in 3 different prints!)
necklace | f21 (triangle and green versions)
open toe booties | aldo (silver splurge or slouchy steal)

I’ve sort of become a hot yoga addict.  Not really by choice, but because membership to my yoga studio is highway robbery so I try to go as much as possible (plus I saw Ryan Gosling in my yoga class once so FO SHO I’m going to yoga every single day for the rest of my life until I die or he asks to marry me, whichever comes first).  I’m not sure if I’m actually losing any weight from yoga, but I definitely feel stronger.  I’ve at least stopped faceplanting (almost) every time I try to do yogi push-ups (chaturanga dandasana, for those fluent yogi-speak out there).  Even if I can never do a one armed handstand with my pinky finger someday, I still love it because hot yoga makes me feel awesome afterwards.  Not only do I sweat like a pig (so I can eat a pig for dinner later), I also feel reenergized.  Bring IT, world.  And if that didn’t motivate you, how about the prospect of Ryan Gosling saying, “hey girl, you look good with your yoga pants on.”  Sigh, nothing motivates like Ryan.
