3 nights of yoga and surf in Mawgan Porth near Newquay, North Cornwall. Explore a daily somatic yoga practice and two surf coaching sessions with Rewilding Surf Retreats. This weekend is about good company, connection and developing new skills.

Who is this trip for? This retreat is for anyone that seeks a little adventure, without the organising. If you’ve always wanted to try surfing but don’t have the vehicle or equipment to plan a trip for yourself, this is for you.

Our yoga practices will always be guided by the breath first. Expect quiet moments to pause and reflect. This style of practice is slow, unrushed and unhurried with options to suit all levels of experience.

On this retreat we’ll be taking two surf coaching sessions with Ali of Rewilding Surf Retreats, where you’ll learn all the basics to be confident in the water. If you’ve never surfed before, we’ll cover everything you need to know to paddle out for the first time. If you’ve surfed before, we can accommodate different levels of experience and host an intermediate level coaching group.

Our surf coaching sessions will include:

- How to be safe in the water 

- Pop-up technique

- Catching a wave

- Surfing in the white water

- Stance, turning technique

Boards, wetsuits and transport to and from the beach will be provided.

And what if there’s no waves? Newquay is in a prime surfing location, with a few different spots that work under various conditions. This means there’s usually a wave to be found somewhere. In the chance that the swell just isn’t working, we’ll head out to the coast for sea swims, coasteering or long walks to take in the views.

We will be sharing a modern 6 bedroom beach house featuring a large living room-come practice space with a glorious Atlantic view. Expect delicious homemade vegetarian feasts around the table and freshly made treats over the weekend. Speaking from experience, you will definitely not go hungry.

How our days will unfold …

… a quiet morning meditation, breath and awareness practice

… a healthy, energy filled breakfast and, crucially, tasty specialty coffee

… two hour surf coaching session at Watergate Bay

… a hearty post-surf lunch

… free time to enjoy the village, head out to the coast for a stroll or enjoy the quiet comfort at the house

… a long, slow afternoon somatic yoga practice exploring our themes for the weekend

… warm, filling communal evening feast or trip to the local pub on the final night
