I really enjoyed taking Krista’s sunset paddleboard yoga class on the Columbia River. It was a wonderful experience & highly recommend taking a class.
So. Much. Fun. I had only been on a paddle board once before, and haven’t done yoga in ages. The class was laid back and easily adapted for any skill level. We had a blast, and left feeling relaxed and rejuvenated.
Had the greatest time today doing SUP yoga. The water was warm at 7:00 am. Beautiful morning to stretch on the water. Would do it again.

Meet Your Instructor – Krista Patterson
I’m a wife, and mom of 2, living in the Blue Mountains of the PNW. I love drinking whiskey, eating potatoes, sitting around fires, driving my Jeep, and as you could probably guess, teaching paddleboarding and paddleboard yoga. 😉
I’ve been a paddleboard/paddleboard yoga instructor for over 9 years now. My journey with Northwest Paddleboarding started when I was 21. I have a passion for helping people stay healthy by moving their body and getting outside.
My thirst for knowledge has led me through my personal training certification with the National Academy of Sports Medicine, my lifeguard certification, two different 200 hour yoga teacher trainings, paddleboard/paddleboard yoga certification and many other continuing education programs.
When the company started in 2015, we only offered lessons and yoga. Over the years we grew, adding delivered rentals, followed by a storefront, gear sales, guided tours, private events, etc. until we were a full-blown, full-service paddleboard shop. It was so much fun and I’m honored I had the opportunity to serve our community in that way.
However, running a small business is hard, especially a seasonal one. We tackled everything thrown at us, but it was time for a change. I learned that I can’t pour from an empty cup. I’ve been on a mission to figure out how to navigate this new chapter and a big part of that was taking a much needed break from running at 150% all the time.
So, we decided to close the storefront and move to the middle of the woods. Literally.
What’s next? Well, this is it! I hope I get to continue to teach and inspire adventure while also taking care of myself. I will also be continuing to host adventure trips to Costa Rica.
Cheers, to embracing every moment of this one life we get to live!
