Ocean Yoga & Surf
Find your elementary flow listening to the sounds of the ocean.
Overview
We will share with you the way that surfing can become more of a spiritual journey, as you learn how to read the waves and become one with the ocean. Surfing involves complete surrender to the unpredictability, it helps us realise the power of nature, but also the healing element of water. In this way, yoga and surf become the perfect combination to bring you back into more flow and creativity.

Location
The Hottest Spot to Ride The Waves
Waikato is home to a must visit surf destination, Raglan! Raglan's Manu Bay, Whale Bay and Indicators are 3 of the most famous and high performance left handers in the country. Waikato's west coast location gets very consistent and often big, raw, southwesterly swells that produce great surf. Locals can get protective of these breaks, so know the rules and be careful.
