Set along the gently flowing waters of Wallkill River, Benedict Farm Park in Montgomery offers a tranquil setting for those seeking a peaceful yet invigorating outdoor activity. The town, located in New York’s Orange County, is famed for its scenic river views and lush surroundings. Elements Yoga and Paddleboard has carved out a niche by blending the serenity of yoga with the calming rhythm of the river, creating a one-of-a-kind experience that appeals to both beginners and seasoned practitioners.
The SUP Yoga session begins with a brief paddleboarding tutorial, teaching participants how to balance and maneuver on the water. Once comfortable, you’ll paddle across the river, soaking in the sights of leafy banks and native wildlife. As you settle onto your board, gentle yoga flows introduce flexibility and mindfulness, all while floating with the current. The session’s highlight is a tranquil moment of stillness at the end, where you can simply float and listen to the sounds of nature.
What makes this experience stand out is the seamless integration of movement, relaxation, and scenery.

The calm, welcoming environment makes SUP Yoga accessible regardless of your age or skill level, with all equipment provided. The entire class lasts around 1.5 hours, making it an ideal midday escape or a refreshing start to your day.
