WAVES OF WELLBEING

What is Surf Therapy

Surf Therapy is an intervention that combines surf instruction, surfing, and structured individual and/or group activities to promote physical, psychosocial, and psychological well-being (International Surf Therapy Organisation, 2019). Surfing engages the whole body and demands focus forcing the surfer to be fully present connecting it to the practice of mindfulness.

HANDS-ON LEARNING

Where the Talk Meets the Tide

Our surf therapy workshop is designed as the perfect follow-up to the main talk. It’s an effective way to make the lessons of resilience, responsibility, and empathy stick.
