Happy August, Be Well Philly fam! With August comes the heat, sunshine — and feelings of never, ever wanting to leave anywhere with air conditioning. But this month, we’ve got a good reason to get out and get moving: our August Studio of the Month, Aqua Vida!

While you may know of this local studio for their eco retreats, their local waterway clean ups, or their planet-friendly leggings, this month, Be Well Philly Members will have the chance to join the Aqua Vida team for their stand-up paddle board yoga classes.

The classes — which take place on floating paddle boards at Spruce Street Harbor Park — will test your balance and stability as you are guided through all-levels yoga to a summery playlist. The low-impact workout is not only a great way to mix up your active rest day, it’s also a chance to try something new while surrounded by a super-relaxing, natural setting. Just imagine how much more zen savasana will feel when you’re chilling on a board that’s gently rocking in the water (instead of lying on the floor!). Ahhhh.
