Health & Wellbeing

IMPROVING STUDENT HEALTH & WELLBEING
THROUGH SURFING & YOGA

Our school trips provide a learn-to-surf programme for young people, with a primary focus to support the health and wellbeing of every individual. We achieve this through not just surfing and yoga but by directly promoting social inclusion, engagement and an enhanced quality of life. Through our introduction to surfing and yoga, in addition to a well-rounded school trip experience, each student will improve their physical and mental health within a neutral environment.

SURF TRIPS THAT POSITIVELY SUPPORT
MENTAL HEALTH & MINDFULNESS

Research suggests that half of all mental health issues emerge by the age of 14, and early intervention can prevent lifelong difficulties with mental health issues. Although we do not offer a specialist mental health clinic or programme (yet), our school surf programmes will provide the time and resources to promote positive mental health at your school. We are constantly adapting our programmes to the needs of young people to maximise the potential health and wellbeing benefits for every school trip.

HOW WE SUPPORT
THE HEALTH & WELLBEING OF YOUNG PEOPLE

IMPROVE PHYSICAL HEALTH

Surfing really is a full-body workout. Each surf session will improve cardiovascular fitness and all core muscle groups through paddling, popping up and just being in the ocean with a surfboard. The exercise of surfing is naturally motivating, and the benefits to your health are endless.

BUILD CONFIDENCE

Developing the confidence to meet new people and step outside of your comfort zones are essential life skills. Each student will build on existing friendships whilst developing new ones. Our school trips provide an opportunity to learn new skills and boost confidence within a sociable environment.

REDUCE STRESS

Unwind from day-to-day life and reduce stress. By simply being in the ocean and joining a group surf lesson with friends, you will lower your stress levels.

UNWIND THROUGH YOGA

There is no better way to unwind than with a relaxing yoga class to strengthen your body and revitalise your mind. Research suggests that yoga is the key to psychological healing, and it can have a positive impact on individuals who suffer from issues relating to stress, anxiety and depression.

RELEASE ENDORPHINS

Surfing is a gratifying physical activity, which will help your body to release chemicals called endorphins. Endorphins trigger a positive feeling in the body, which can be accompanied by a positive and energised outlook on life.

BOOST SELF-ESTEEM

For anyone that hasn’t tried surfing before, it may be something they take to quickly and successfully, providing that inner rock star feeling and boosting their self-esteem!

GET ACTIVE OUTDOORS

This is an opportunity to be phone free and get active! By taking up surfing, we can help young people to appreciate the health and social benefits found from enjoying a more active and outdoor lifestyle.

THAT “FEEL GOOD” FEELING

Learning to surf, visiting new destinations and travelling with friends can guarantee that “feel good” feeling. We believe that feeling good and functioning well defines wellbeing.

MAINTAINING A HEALTHY DIET

Our school surf programmes include healthy and nutritious meals, freshly provided by in-house chefs and local restaurants. Through eating a healthy balanced diet and exercising regularly during our school trips, we encourage good physical health and improve student wellbeing.
