Gliding on colorful paddleboards, nine women made their way to a
quiet cove on Lake Allatoona on a recent Sunday morning, just beyond
the Little River Marina on Bells Ferry Road.
They formed a loose circle once they reached the pine tree-lined
cove, sitting in restful poses on their boards as they waited for yoga
practice to begin.
“We call it stand-up paddleboard yoga, or SUP yoga,” said Jana Rife,
51, the group’s certified instructor. She is passionate about sharing yoga’s
physical and mental disciplines, which originated in ancient India.
Rife blends traditional yoga sessions with balancing on paddleboards
and exploring Georgia’s lakes, taking the exercises to a new
level of stretching and finding inner peace. The Canton resident is
certified to teach both. She also maintains certifications in CPR,
first aid, and automated external defibrillator from the American
Heart Association because of the potential dangers that come with
any type of water activity.
“Everyone can benefit from yoga, especially with the daily stress
that we all deal with,” she said. “It’s sad if someone does not experience
yoga because they think they are not flexible enough, or thin
enough. Yoga and meditation can bring so much calm, with many
health benefits of both.”
Meditation is as simple as connecting to your breathing, she said.
Rife said she struggled for many years with fear, self-doubt, anxiety
and depression.
“I had a very stressful corporate manager job. I didn’t know what
was wrong with me. My doctors kept encouraging me to do yoga,”
she said. “Fear almost held me back, but after my first yoga class in
years, I was hooked.”
Rife said she was “a whole new person” after that class.
“Yoga and meditation can be an incredible source of self-confidence
and a way to know one’s self better. I can’t imagine where I would be
now if I didn’t live my passion,” she said.
