OVERVIEW:

OCEAN EMPOWERMENT PROGRAM

PRACTICAL SKILLS & MINDSET

DURATION: 4-WEEKS

GENDER: MIXED

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

The ocean in New Zealand is a dangerous place, with avoidable accidents happening every year all over the country. 

To the inexperienced the ocean is a treacherous place, something fraught with danger around every corner. 

Something to be feared, something to be avoided. 

However to the experienced water-person the ocean is a playground, something to be respected of course, but not to be feared - to be enjoyed.

This program is built to take people that aren't confident in the ocean, that may have had a bad experience in the past, or maybe aren't confident swimmers, and guide them through our four week program of empowerment, building skills, building confidence, and setting you free for a lifelong love affair with the ocean.


HIGHLIGHTS

The program is split up into three components:

THE WHY

We need to understand what's holding you back in the first place, to find out what's going on internally.

Maybe it's a past trauma, maybe an inability to swim.

Whatever it is, once we know that, we have a roadmap to follow to improve.

THE HOW

Armed with the knowledge of how our body and mind work against us in the ocean, we can now begin the retraining process to work through them. 

Through a simple step by step process you'll learn new skills to push through these barriers, and begin making strides towards increasing your breath hold time.

LETS GET Practical

Each week you'll be put through practical tests and real life simulations, putting your new skills into practice.


BONUS: YOU'LL ALSO GET...

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

We follow our unique curriculum which has been designed specifically for people that want to get into surfing, and their unique experiences in the water. 

Through a mix of theory and practical activities we help to remove the barriers that may be preventing you from overcoming any barriers in the ocean.  

As a group you'll learn what's happening on a physiological level to your body, you'll also learn how your mental state triggers these responses, something that holds many people back. 

Over the duration of the program you'll learn all the skills and techniques to:

  • Learn how to stay calm in scary situations.
  • Increase your breath hold capabilities. 
  • Understand the autonomic bodily responses that happen without you knowing. 
  • Reduce your anxiety levels in the surf. 
  • Be underwater for longer - without stressing out. 
  • Understand how rips work, how to spot them, what to do if you're stuck in them.
  • And much more.

EQUIPMENT

We'll be carrying out the practical elements of the program in the ocean, so the equipment required is minimal. 

We have surfboards and wetsuits you can use in-house free of charge for the duration wherever needed. 

Other than that just bring along some swimwear, goggles, and a towel.


FAQ'S

HOW DO I KNOW IF THIS program IS FOR ME?

This program is for you if you're a normal everyday surfer, that surfs normal everyday waves, or maybe you're new to surfing but really scared of the ocean. 

It's for individuals that:

- Panic quickly when held underwater. 

- Stress out in bigger waves.

- Get scared of rips, rocks, etc. 

- Have had a traumatic event in the past that they want to overcome.

- Struggle to hold their breath for long periods.

WILL I BE PUT INTO SCARY SITUATIONS?

You are in control at all times, unequivocally. 

We do put you through practical simulations, however at no point are you out of control, and at no point are you ever in a situation that you can't remove yourself from. 

We're to push, and to nurture you at the same time.

WHAT HAPPENS IN BAD WEATHER?

Bad weather doesn't affect us in any way. We're on the beach getting wet anyway, so we embrace it all.
