Welcome to Sandbar Yoga, your mobile yoga studio on the waters and beaches of the Delmarva Peninsula, from Ocean City to Cape Charles.
We are Nicole and Todd Bellamy, a 500-hour registered yoga instructor, certified charter boat captain, and eco-tour guide. Inspired by our love for the Delmarva outdoors, we created Sandbar Yoga to deliver these experiences directly to you at the beach.
Our signature excursions include a boat cruise and eco-tour with beach yoga, a stand-up paddleboard-style yoga experience on FlowMotion™ mats, and traditional beach yoga—now with the option to experience the withdrawal of senses (pratyahara) through Sound Off™ noise-canceling headsets.
Whether visiting the Delmarva beaches for bachelorette parties, girls’ trips, or family getaways, we offer endless customization for your special occasions: add on a boho bridal beach picnic, a sound healing ceremony, a core-shaking Pilates workout on the beach or SUP, and more. If you have a particular request or idea, please don't hesitate to contact us. We hope you’ll love the Delmarva Peninsula as much as us!

Frequently asked questions
-
Sandbar Yoga is a mobile studio; we bring the yoga experience to you! We primarily operate in Ocean City, Maryland; Cape Charles, Virginia; and along the Nanticoke and Pocomoke Rivers. Just let us know your preferred location, and we'll handle the rest.
-
In the event of inclement weather during your scheduled excursion time, we will make every effort to reschedule your experience during your stay. Should either party be unable to find a suitable time to reschedule, a full refund will be issued. We appreciate your understanding in these situations.
-
If you are sensitive to heat or sunlight, we highly recommend booking during the sunrise or sunset hours in the summer. During the shoulder seasons (April, May, September, October), mid-afternoon sessions are pleasant and recommended.
-
No yoga experience is necessary! At Sandbar Yoga, we welcome beginners and those with a beginner's mindset to join our experiences. Our approach is inclusive, and we strive to meet you at your level. You'll find a supportive environment where you can explore yoga at your own pace.
-
In addition to yoga, we offer a variety of experiences including beach or FlowMotion mat Pilates, sound healing ceremonies, and guided meditations and breathwork practices. Each of these modalities caters to different needs, whether you are seeking relaxation or a more energetic experience. We're dedicated to providing you with a diverse range of wellness practices.
-
You need only bring yourself and a water bottle. We provide yoga mats. Focus on your practice, and let us take care of the rest!
-
Participants should be able to lift their leg up and over the side of the boat and climb on and off the boat as needed. We ensure all safety measures are in place, including life jackets for each participant, whistles, flares, and other USCG required safety gear. You may need to step off the boat into water up to knee deep, so it is advised to wear quick-drying exercise clothes. We have extra sunscreen and bug spray if needed.
-
The weight limit for our FlowMotion™ mats is approximately 285 lbs.
-
The difference between our beach yoga and the sound off headset experience lies in how you connect with your surroundings and instructor during the session. Both are instructor-guided yoga sessions conducted on the beach, with yoga mats provided.
In our regular beach yoga sessions, I use a microphone headset connected to a portable speaker. This setup helps amplify my voice over the natural beach sounds like wind, waves, and other beach-goers, but you will still hear those sounds.
The Sound Off headsets offer a unique experience of pratyahara, which is the yogic practice of sensory withdrawal. These noise-cancelling headsets block out ambient noise, allowing you to focus deeply on your practice with the ocean as your dristi, or focal point. Through these headsets, you will only hear my voice and carefully selected music—or you can choose to have no music at all. This technology helps create a personal and introspective experience, enhancing your connection to the practice by isolating you from external distractions.
-
Yes, we offer pop-up public classes throughout the summer! We partner with the Wildwood Lavender Farm each summer, as well as the Pocomoke River Canoe Company in Snow Hill. Check our social media and website frequently throughout the summer to see what offerings are available for single ticket purchase!
