Imagine a unique surf and bodywork immersion week in the quiet region of Portugal's Aljezur.
Great surf and nature. Healthy food. Bodywork. Healing Adventures.
A chance to get back to your true nature through surf coaching at all levels, therapeutic and bodywork activities including yoga, mindfulness, and embodiment practices.
Raise your awareness through the connection you make with your body, mind, and your fellow surf tribe members. Nourish yourself with delicious meals to meet your dietary requirement. This way you can grow and flow in life (again).
Get to experience the beach as a healing environment for your current condition, surf until your arms hurt at the famous Arrifana beach, learn about how your body keeps the score, and see the sunset over Praia Monte Clérigo.
We're stoked and we are very happy to welcome you on 'board'!
Let the sea set you free!

Surf Therapy is defined as 'Evidence-based clinically guided, and safely delivered use of surfing and play as a therapeutic vehicle in the prevention and treatment of social, behavioral, health, economic and other challenges' -International Surf Therapy Organisation.
Our unique immersion weeks are group retreats to beautiful coastal regions with great waves and nature. Combining surf coaching at all levels, therapeutic and bodywork activities including yoga, mindfulness and embodiment practices to support growth and raise awareness. Add in to the mix delicious meals to meet all dietary requirements served in a private villa, and of course lots of ‘stoke’ from the Surf Therapy Team.
At our retreats the ocean will be the metaphor for your life and will support you in getting back to your true nature (authentic self). Whether that happens on a surfboard or at the beach (surfing is voluntary). Surfing and/or spending time near the ocean as a grounding and mindful activity is a good counterpart to body work experiments, therapeutic interventions and more widely used practices such as yoga and meditation.
With a team of trained professionals we safeguard your space during the retreat in order for you to find your flow to grow!
