Reviews for The Board & Body Private Experience: Floating Fitness Class on Paddleboards with Instructor

Loved this class! Such a fun and intentional workout on the lake.

Had such a great experience with Board & Body on Lake LBJ this weekend! I had never been on a paddle board before and I’m 10 months postpartum, so I was a little nervous. Jes was so supportive and made me feel comfortable right away. There were people with all levels of paddle boarding experience in the class, which made it feel really welcoming. You can really tell she has thought of every small detail to make sure everyone feels comfortable and taken care of. The class was such a fun and relaxing way to move, the views were so beautiful, and I left feeling stronger. If you’re looking for a unique experience on Lake LBJ, I highly recommend Board & Body!

Jes is an absolutely wonderful teacher and class leader. She is not just knowledgeable and experienced, but also super kind and has such a nice way about her. This class was the perfect mix of core training and peaceful calm on the water. All we had to do was show up and Jes had everything well prepared and planned. I am already asking friends to come join me next time!

This class was the perfect mix of strength, yoga, and meditation. I left the class feeling like I got a workout in but also very relaxed. A few things I loved/learned: • she has mounts on your board if you want to record some of your session to share with others; some people might not use this feature but I loved it • I had my class on a Saturday morning and I expected the lake to be loud; but it was so calm and honestly, just a perfect day • definitely wear what the website tells you to wear, if you wear a swimsuit I promise your bits will be hanging out all over the place • this would be GREAT for mamas wanting a morning to themselves on vacay, maybe an early morning bachelorette day, or a couples class • you make this class whatever you want; if you fly through all the moves you probably won’t get much of a workout but if you make it intentional, all your muscles will be shaking • the instructor is very good at recommending modifications, watching your form, watching for any discomfort she sees, and explaining the moves so you don’t have to always be looking at her - it’s great for newbies all the way up to experts All-in-all, I am 100% going back and can’t wait! Highly recommend!

I can’t recommend this paddleboard fitness class enough. The entire experience is supportive from the moment you step onto the board. It’s calming yet challenging in the best possible way — the kind of movement that meets you where you are but still invites you to grow. The postpartum‑informed instruction that Jes provides is incredible. As someone who is 17 months postpartum, I felt completely seen and safe, and I loved how the session helped me feel stronger and more connected to my body. The board itself adds this amazing layer of natural resistance — every tiny shift engages your stabilizing muscles, so even simple movements become deeply effective without ever feeling overwhelming. Doing intentional movement while surrounded by Lake Life beauty — the water, the breeze, the quiet—is grounding, energizing, and genuinely refreshing for the soul and body. To my fellow lake lovers: this is the experience you’ve been looking for. If you want a workout that nourishes you physically and mentally while letting you soak in the beauty of the outdoors, this is it. A truly unforgettable experience.

This was such an incredible experience. There’s really nothing like it. From the start, Jes is well-organized and thoughtful; she had our boards ready, a space for our personal belongings and an easy-to-follow introduction to the class. The class itself was fun and straightforward. It was physically challenging enough for me to get a great workout but not so hard that I couldn’t do it. Plus, being on the water in this beautiful space is so magical that I enjoyed every bit of my time on the board. It’s a really unique experience that I think would be great to do with a group of friends or family or even as a retreat activity. I loved my time with the others in class.

I really enjoyed my Board & Body session. It was effective, enjoyable , and thoughtfully programmed in a way that kept me engaged the entire time. It’s a great balance of challenge and luxury fitness.
