2025 LiquidRoots™
SUP Yoga Retreat
Terceira Island
LiquidRoots™ elevates MIND & BODY to a whole new “Wave” in Fitness. It is a complete workout that takes bodyweight, strength, stretch, core, balance, and barefoot training to an entirely new level by adding the challenge of the unpredictability and instability of water. Surrounded by the ebb and flow of the ocean, LiquidRoots™ Classes are effective for every level of participant. Classes are held in safe, shallow bodies of water on custom BodyRoots™ paddle boards specifically designed for exercise and yoga. Our local Azores team & tour guides will be at your service day and night to assist you in and around the island – history, culture, food, wine, and tours. Consider them your family!

“Morning SUP Yoga on the boards at a different beach (or hotel pool) was spectacular! We got to see more of this stunning island, challenge our SUP practice on the water, and learn with hands-on personal attention from JO. There truly is nothing like doing yoga on the Atlantic Ocean and connecting to the pulse of nature!” - 2022
“…It was mind-blowing...Challenging, enlightening, enriching, the sights, memories, and wisdom imparted keep me going.” - 2019
“I came across Joana and the LiquidRoots Yoga Retreat online when I was looking for my next vacation and yoga retreats around the world. I have always wanted to visit the Azores and thought how awesome would it be to join a yoga retreat out there! I could not have had a better experience. I have traveled around the world and appreciate different destinations and experiences, but I am so grateful one of my most unique travel experiences was in Terceira!” - 2019
“My roots have definitely been planted on the Island and I can’t wait to return to this magical place.” - 2018
“I enjoyed as we started as strangers from all around the world and at the end we felt all connected, peaceful, and like we had known each other forever. That makes me so grateful. The retreat is a perfect balance, unique and special.” - 2018
“The LiquidRoots experience was one I had never had before. As an avid paddle boarder and yogi, this was completely different adding a different level of fun and challenge than I was used to. What made this retreat so incredibly special was the cultural emersion and Azores connection JO provides. I will definitely be back!” - 2018
“…I did not know anything about the Azores. I found it to be a hidden diamond in the rough. It was a really interesting place built on tradition, sincere hospitality, and beautiful volcanic landscapes!” - 2016
