SURF THERAPY EVENT
QUICK DETAILS
Certified Surf Instructors
First Aid Trained
Lifeguard Qualified
Safety First: Learn to surf in safe hands with our experienced, expert Certified Level 1 Surf Instructors who are Lifeguard, and First Aid trained.
The purpose of this event is to empower women who are dealing with any form of trauma and/or life challenges - using surf and the ocean as the medium.
About the PROGRAM:
This is a one off event which means that surfing is used as a tool to improve mental wellbeing.
It's all about connecting, sharing experiences (only if you want to and feel comfortable) and using surfing as a metaphor to real-life.
During the session we will start off in our beach circle, creating a safe and trusting group environment where you and your story are 100% safe.
We encourage you to share how you feel, but only if you feel comfortable!
After having a chat we tune in with being present and in the moment - trying to let go of the challenges you're facing.
Then it's time to hit the water!
You'll be in the water with qualified instructors throughout, and we'll get out there, jam it out, and leave it all in the water.
At the end of the session we'll have a small round of reflection, closing off together in a way that feels right for everyone.
After this you are more than welcome to hang around and chat with the other wāhine until your hearts content.
Staff:
The session is led by experienced surf instructors who all have their level 1 certificate, alongside being lifeguard and first-aid trained.
They're also educated in how to connect physical activity to mental wellbeing.
Breath in, sign-up:
If you'd like to sign up and join the event select the date, click Book Now and go through the online booking process.
There's limited spots (only x8) so get in early to avoid disappointment.
We're so excited to connect with you all, and share this journey of empowerment together with you.
IMPORTANT: This event is run by volunteers!
We will be putting lots of time and effort into this event as it is so close to my heart, as well as Mount Surf School providing all the equipment free of charge alongside lead coach Loz as my fellow assistant.
From you we ask only one commitment in return: Turn up!
We ask this small commitment from you because there are a lot of people on the waiting list, all eager to attend.
For this reason, any student that fails to attend the event will not be allowed to attend another event in the future - with no exceptions.
Please don't rob others of the opportunity if you're sitting on the fence and not quite ready.
Other than that we hope to see you TBA at the Mount Surf School HQ: Opposite 27 Marine Parade, Mount Maunganui.
