BASS LAKE — Stand up paddle boarding is a fast growing sporting activity that provides a host of health benefits, including strength building and reducing stress.
Summer isn’t over, so consider starting your morning off with paddle board yoga in the marina at Miller’s Landing at Bass Lake. The fun and relaxing practice takes place on Tuesday mornings at 7 a.m., and continues all summer.

“There are excellent health benefits to paddle board yoga for all ages,” says Michelle Miller, “and we have lots of fun at the same time.”
Paddle board yoga health benefits include:
Full body work out: each muscle in the body is used, especially leg muscles working to stabilize the body’s center of gravity. Arms, back and shoulders work to propel the paddle board in the water. Core, back and abdominal muscles are constantly at work to maintain your balance. Low impact exercise: Although there are lots of muscles being used, it is a low impact exercise unlikely to cause any injury. In fact, it can help with rehab as it slowly increases strength. Stress reduction: Yoga combined with water have a calming effect on the mind, body and soul. Cardio workout: Build up the body’s heart rate and challenge friends to participate.
