Paddle Into Fitness Paddle Into Fitness started in 2010 with Roxy athlete, ocean lifeguard, aquatic EMT, and yoga and fitness instructor Gillian Gibree.

WPA Paddleboard Certifications, Yoga Alliance SUP Yoga Teacher Trainings, & ACE/NASM SUP Fitness Teacher Trainings
Yoga & Fitness Paddleboards, Aquatic Pool Mats, Online Pool Yoga & Fitness Cert, 12-Week Beginner Online SUP Program, Paddle Girl Gear The first location launched in San Diego with beginner lessons and SUP Yoga & Fitness classes before expanding to Orange County. After training instructors throughout Southern California, Gillian recognized the need to create a quality teacher training program for the public. Paddle Into Fitness began offering Paddleboard and SUP Yoga Certifications approved by Yoga Alliance and the World Paddle Association, along with a SUP Fitness program recognized by the American Council on Exercise (ACE), NASM, CanFitPro, and AFAA. Paddle Into Fitness also provides Master Instructor training, enabling graduates to conduct PIF trainings around the world! In addition to certifications, Paddle Into Fitness has created an inflatable SUP Yoga & Fitness Paddleboard specifically designed for yogis and fitness enthusiasts looking to expand their practice to the ultimate studio or gym of all: the water! Our travel-friendly Paddleboard rolls up into a backpack and can be checked at the airport without incurring oversized luggage fees. Beyond yoga and fitness, the board can be used for SUP adventures of all kinds, including fishing, fitness, whitewater, and small wave surfing. In 2015, Paddle Into Fitness launched Float Into Fitness, featuring a curriculum that teaches yoga and fitness using inflatable mats in a pool setting. This certification is available in both a ‘live’ format and an online format approved for CECs from top fitness organizations. To complement our Float Into Fitness pool training, our rectangular pool fitness mat is ideal for creating fun and challenging workouts in the aquatic environment while adding a fresh twist to your yoga or fitness routine. This system is suitable for both indoor and outdoor pools, enabling gyms, recreation centers, resorts, and athletic clubs to conduct yoga and fitness classes on the water. Paddle Into Fitness also offers lessons for individuals and small private groups in Ventura, California. Activities may include beginner lessons, paddle surfing, SUP Yoga, SUP interval training, and ocean paddling. If you cannot meet with us in person, you can always connect with us online through our Intro to SUP & Beginner 12-Week SUP Fitness Online Training Program. Alternatively, you can represent the brand by wearing our Paddle Girl and Paddle Into Fitness gear. Over the years, Paddle Into Fitness has received outstanding reviews from certification graduates and gained international recognition from numerous media outlets, including a cover and feature article on SUP yoga in Yoga Journal Magazine! Paddle Into Fitness has also been highlighted in Shape, The Huffington Post, Self, Yahoo Sports, San Diego Magazine, Reuters, and Fitness Magazine. Our passion for stand-up paddleboarding, yoga, fitness, and the outdoors is contagious, and we at Paddle Into Fitness are excited for you to learn this life-changing sport and incorporate it into a healthy lifestyle!

Reviews like this never get old. 🩵

When someone tells us the training improved their paddling, gave them confidence to teach, and continues to help them serve their own students—that's the greatest compliment we could receive.
