Hang 10 in Hawaii

Reprinted from iVillage.com  July 2006

When you watch Blue Crush, do tears well up in your eyes as you wish for the day when you too can be one with Mother Earth and ride the ultimate wave on a Hawaiian Island? They might actually be tears of rage over not having abs touched by God like Kate Bosworth's — but that is all about to change. Former snowboarder turned Hawaiian surf enthusiast/yoga guru Me-Shell Barnas is offering a fun — and holistic — way to get fit with SwellWomen, a surf and yoga wellness experience on the Hawaiian island of Maui. Women of all ages with no surfing experience are given a safe and supportive environment to learn how to ride the waves — without having to worry about looking like a fool doing it! And here, yoga is used not only for meditative purposes but also to strengthen muscles for hanging 10 and surfing the Hawaiian waves. The 6-night, 7-day package includes twice-a-day surf and yoga classes plus gourmet meals and massage — and you can add on other sporty adventures such as kayaking and snorkeling. We mentioned it's in Hawaii, right? Get ready to get stoked.
