Yoga
To complement all salty sessions we added intentional practices to our week together. Yoga & mobility classes to stretch and restore sore muscles.
But it’s not only about physical fitness - the real surf progression happens when all the elements fall into place! That’s why we included journaling and self-reflection practices, as we know that the mindset is the secret ingredient to make that next step on your surfing journey.
