Yoga for Surfers
BRAD BALUKJIAN
Reprinted from ISLANDS MAGAZINE: January/February 2005
Ever tried the lotus position on a surfboard? Give it a shot at the SwellMates program on the Hawaiian island of Maui. SwellMates is a weeklong Hawaiian islands vacation for couples that combines yoga, surfing, and lots of inner peace. You’ll stay in the Royal Lahaina Resort’s private cottages on Ka’anapali Beach. Yoga starts the day at sunrise, and sunset surfing ends it. Don’t worry if your down dog looks more like a hippo and you can’t stand up on your board; there are plenty of instructors to help you balance. Programs run throughout the year and cost $2,075 per person, including lodging, yoga and surf instruction, meals, massage, island excursions, wellness workshops and more.
