Read MoreWow - I am so glad I did this training with Jess. Not only did I learn loads to help with my new paddleboarding skills, but I feel super confident in helping others feel safe and comfortable on a paddleboard now. Her years of experience teaching yoga on the board shines through, it makes the practice so much more accessible. I found her videos excellent and her feedback and communication invaluable. Very happy to have found this!

Read MoreI took the SYC training during COVID, and it's one of the best things I've done in awhile. I loved the way you could log in and complete the each section as you had time to do so, and then go back and review as needed- great for the busy person, but also great for the one stuck at home! The way that Jess has transferred an in-person experience to an online training here is wonderful. She's there step by step if you have questions or need assistance/feedback, and has created an online community where you can interact with other students taking the course- just like a regular YTT cohort. Thank you for an AMAZING SUP Yoga training! What you've created here is so very special and I'm grateful to be part of it.

Read MoreThis course is excellent. The content is very dialed in and easy to sit with. There are so many tips and techniques mentioned to teach a successful SUP yoga class. Some online classes can be boring and this one is not! The videos were fun to watch and the content was great to read through. The zoom meeting at the end is a great time for feedback on the assignments.

Read MoreThis is perfect course to anyone who is interested to learn and become SUP yoga Instructor with your own schedule and speed. The Course material is well prepared, arranged in very logical way and well presented. Jess has very sweet and personal way to deliver the information though the videos which makes you feel like having private sections 😊. Highly recommended.

Read MoreThe introduction from Jess was just what I needed to help me relax into the course as I was a little nervous to start with. The explanation of what I will need and the encouragement to develop a teaching style that provides people with a lasting experience was welcomed as well. Jess is very personable from the videos and interaction so far I've had in getting started with my class...that I'm still a bit nervous about but it really doesn't surprise me. I'm looking forward to the rest of the training over the next several months.

Read MoreI highly recommend this SUP Yoga Teacher Training course with Jessica. I'm in the UK and so I did the online version, I'm sure in person totally fantastic too but for an online ti teach something so physical - Jessica delivers this perfectly! I'd had little SUP practice but I'm a yoga teacher - this course enabled be to adapt to the water with confidence and with Jessica's voice in my head. Everything she says is so easy to remember and apply in practice! I'm thrilled to bits and she has been supportive all along the way. Thank you so much!!
