2027 Dates

But lasting progression comes from something more.
It happens when someone takes the time to understand you.
​​​
Your goals.
Your fears.
Your strengths.
The way you learn.
​
That's why our retreats are intentionally small.
Why our coaching is deeply personalised.
And why we combine technical coaching with the support that helps you stay calm under pressure, work through self-doubt and build confidence that lasts beyond the retreat.
​
Because no two surfers are the same, so why should their coaching be?
​
Every part of the week has been thoughtfully designed to help you leave with more than just better surfing.
You'll leave with more confidence, more clarity and a completely different relationship with the ocean and with yourself.
This isn't just a surf retreat
There are plenty of surf retreats in tropical destinations. They all have beautiful accommodation, daily surf lessons, yoga, nice food.
​
And yes... you'll find all of those here too.
​
But if you've ever joined a surf lesson and felt like just another person in the group... you'll know that's not enough.
​
Surfing every day absolutely helps. It's one of the reasons retreats can be so much fun and such a great way to improve.​​
The waves are another reason we love coming back.
With a variety of surf breaks nearby, we can choose conditions that best suit the group each day.
Whether you're working on catching more green waves, building confidence, or refining your technique, Siargao offers the perfect playground to support your progression.
​
The water is crystal clear, the waves are playful, and every surf feels like one of those sessions you wish could last forever.
Why Siargao?
I first visited Siargao in 2023, and while everyone talks about the beautiful beaches and palm trees (which are every bit as incredible as they look), the main reason I fell in love with this island wasn't the scenery.
​
It was the people.
The warmth.
The kindness.
The slower pace of life.
​
Out in the water, you'll see local surfers sharing their stoke with visitors. Local women longboarding together, cheering each other on, giggling between waves and simply enjoying being out there. It's the kind of lineup that instantly makes you feel welcome and reminds you that surfing can be joyful without feeling competitive.
And then there's Punta Punta.
From the moment you arrive, you'll understand why I couldn't imagine hosting our retreat anywhere else.
​
Nestled amongst the palms and overlooking the ocean, it's more than just a beautiful place to stay.
The team welcomes you with genuine warmth, remembers your name, celebrates your wins and truly cares that you have the most incredible week possible.
​
One of my favourite parts of every retreat is watching our guests become part of the Punta Punta family by the end of the week.
Soulful Surf Method
The Soulful Surf Method is the coaching approach that guides every part of this retreat.
​
​It was created to make your learning experience as personal as possible, because no two surfers are the same.
​
My role isn't to squeeze you into a system.
It's to understand you first.
Then, coach you in a way that helps you progress.
That's how meaningful, lasting progression happens.
​
Everything we do throughout the week is guided by these five principles:
Feel Seen
Every woman arrives with a different story, different strengths, different fears and different goals. I take the time to understand where you are now, where you'd love to be, and what will help you get there - so your coaching is completely tailored to you.
Know What Matters
Instead of overwhelming you with everything at once, we'll focus on the next step that's going to make the biggest difference to your surfing.
Turn Every Session Into Learning
The best surfers aren't the ones who never make mistakes. They're the ones who know how to learn from every surf. Through video analysis, reflection and personalised feedback, you'll leave every session knowing exactly what to celebrate and what to work on next.
Stay With Yourself
Surfing isn't just about technique. It's about learning to work with fear, frustration and self-doubt, so you can stay present, trust your decisions and enjoy the process.
Keep Progressing Long After the Retreat
My goal isn't to help you surf better for one week.​​
It's to give you the clarity, confidence and tools to keep progressing long after you've flown home.
A Week That Changes More Than Just Your Surfing
The alarm goes off before sunrise... but somehow, you don't mind.
​
You pull back the curtains and the ocean is already glowing. The boat is waiting just out the front, coffee in hand, surfboard under your arm, and off we go to catch the best waves before the island fully wakes up.
A few hours later, you return salty, smiling and already replaying your favourite wave from the morning.
The team is there to welcome you back with their famous cucumber-infused water (trust me... you'll be dreaming about it long after you get home), while breakfast is being served under the trees on a table that looks like it belongs on a Pinterest board.
​
After a little time to refuel, we gather for video analysis. We celebrate the wins, laugh together, notice the little things that are already changing, and help you leave knowing exactly what to focus on next.
​
Lunch is served, and the afternoon is yours.
Maybe you stretch out on a sun lounge beneath the palms with a good book.
Maybe you head into town to wander through little boutiques and cafés. Or maybe you treat yourself to one of Bambi's magical massages... the kind that somehow makes every muscle in your body melt.
​
As the afternoon unfolds, some days we'll venture into town together for dinner, sharing stories from the day's surf over incredible food. On other days, we'll spend the afternoon island hopping, exploring the hidden gems, or discovering another little corner of Siargao that made me fall in love with this island.
​
No two days are exactly the same.
​
Every surf session, activity and adventure has been thoughtfully chosen to make the most of the tides, the conditions and everything Siargao has to offer.
There's a rhythm to the week that allows you to simply relax, knowing every detail has already been taken care of.
All you need to do is show up, enjoy the ride, and let yourself be fully immersed in the experience.
The People Beside You
One of the most beautiful parts of every retreat isn't just the waves or the island.
It's the people you get to share it with.
From the moment you arrive, you'll be surrounded by a team that genuinely cares about your experience and wants to see you thrive, both in and out of the water.
Is This Retreat For You?
This retreat is designed for women with some surfing experience who are ready to take the next step in their surfing - with coaching that's as personal as the journey itself.
It's perfect for you if you:
Have some surfing experience
and are comfortable paddling out with support. (If you've never surfed before, this won't be the best retreat for you.)
Already ride - or would love to progress to - a longboard or mid-length
These boards are the perfect fit for the waves we'll be surfing throughout the week.
Are excited to learn
and open to trying new approaches
Value personalised coaching over generic advice
and are ready to invest in coaching that's designed around you, not a one-size-fits-all lesson.
Want to understand your surfing better
so every session feels purposeful instead of leaving you wondering what to work on next
Are ready to leave with more than better technique
You're looking for confidence, clarity and a clear path for your surfing long after the retreat is over.
