The Location
We will be based just a stone’s throw away from the surfing capital of the UK, Fistral Beach, and a 5 minute walk into Newquay town centre. We will be staying in a beautifully refurbished house which will provide a luxurious base for your perfect trip to Cornwall.
A mixture of lovingly restored period features, contrasting with sharp contemporary design and cosy furnishings all come together to form a home you won't want to leave!

Body Surfing
Bodysurfing is as pure as you can get as a sport. You don’t need anything to be able to do it, just good technique! Once mastered we can then look at adding a pair of swim fins and hand planes to increase speed and control. By learning to bodysurf you’ll come to understand waves on a whole new level. If you get a bit worried about being in the water, this session we will aim to get your confidence back and start by learning how to deal with being calm and collected when the waves roll in. You’ll be a fish in no time!

Bodyboarding
Not only is bodyboarding so much fun, but it’s the best bum and leg work out you can get!
Most people always ask me why I bodyboard instead of stand up surfing. Well I see it like this, surfing is great but bodyboarding is just so much fun! It’s one of the easiest and most efficient ways to get out back and start catching waves fast. Bodyboarders can do more moves in any waves. Most pro surfers came from bodyboarding and most bodyboarders can surf, it’s just another water craft you can ride depending on the waves. Bodyboarders will always be the ones flying around on all the waves with a big smile on their face!

Surfing
Stand up surfing is one of the most rewarding and addictive sports you will ever try. There’s a common phrase used in the surfing culture called ‘stoked’ - it’s a natural high you get from riding a wave and being only powered by the ocean. It’s an addiction and you won’t be able to get it out of your mind. But it’s one of the most healthiest and content feelings you will ever experience.

Yoga
Yoga is one of the purest forms of movement developed thousands of years ago which will eagerly compliment your body after a day spent in the water. In class we will explore postures designed to target the tired muscles we worked on out in the waves, releasing tension in the physical body as well as the mind - yoga allows us to leave class with mental clarity, creating space within the mind strengthens our focus which in return brings us closer to reaching our intentions.

Taking part and practicing all of the above activities are the perfect foundation to creating a confident water-woman. Not only will the ocean be your oyster but you can now make the most of any conditions and tackle it head on.
