Twenty years ago Paige tried ocean kayaking and immediately fell in love. She eventually became a kayaking instructor, helping others learn the sport and assisting with trips to the Channel Islands and other locations. She spent the better part of most weekends on the water.
It was around that same time that Paige started her yoga practice and has continued it over time. Paige found she much preferred doing yoga outdoors and connecting with nature. She sought out opportunities to practice everywhere from parks to the beach.
When Paige tried stand up paddle boarding she instantly fell in love. She loved the view and perspective you get from a standing position. She enjoys the challenge of the sport. When she came across a Yogaqua class several years ago she immediately signed up and has been a regular ever since.
When Paige isn’t taking a SUP yoga class or leading a sunset paddle she can be found assisting with paddle board trash clean ups in the Marina and volunteering with other activities to help improve the ocean and the planet.


She began paddle boarding as another form of outdoor activity in 2017. When she tried SUP Yoga for the 1st time in Mammoth, California in 2021 she immediately fell in LOVE! Her two favorite passions, yoga + the ocean all wrapped up into one! After leaving the Mammoth Yoga Festival in 2021, Leslie was committed to becoming a certified SUP Yoga Instructor. In January, 2022 Leslie completed Yogaqua’s SUP Yoga Certification course.
Her classes are a combination of embracing nature while we glide to our SUP yoga haven. Once we arrive we will enjoy a well balanced class of relaxation, appreciation for the ocean and a yoga practice to ignite the mermaid/merman within each of us.

One morning, Kay was enjoying Mother’s Beach and started seeing people practicing yoga on the water. Kay’s curiosity had her researching online to see what the class was about, and stumbled upon YogAqua. Kay instantly signed up for a class package and from the first time she tried SUP yoga, she instantly fell in love with the scenic beauty, the challenge, and the connection with the practice of yoga on water. This built Kay’s curiosity even further, and she wanted to deepen her understanding and knowledge of yoga on the water, and in turn Kay signed up for the SUP yoga teacher training with YogAqua.
