A 6-Day Journey into Flow, surfing & Embodied Presence

16. – 21. November 2025

Why this retreat is unique

Ride the Inner Wave is not your average surf and yoga retreat.

What sets this experience apart is the deep integration of somatic therapy, contemplative psychology, and nature-based mindfulness practices at one of Costa Rica´s most beautiful beaches. All offered by two experienced trauma-informed psychotherapists who are also surfers, yogis/meditators, and passionate facilitators of flow.

As the ocean becomes your teacher, and your body the compass, you will notice how your inner explorations are mirrored by your outer adventures. Surfing is not about performance, but about meeting the wave—internally and externally—with presence, decisiveness, and compassion. 

We combine:

• Daily surfing with mindbody and contemplative practice— a novel and powerful blend.
• Evidence-based somatic practices
• Playful embodied movement, yoga, and surf sessions as gateways to healing
• Focuses not just on physical skill, but on how we relate to challenge, change, and flow – in the water and within
• Co-led by two trauma-informed therapists & yoga teachers who hold space for personal transformation and embodied healing
• 1:1 counseling sessions, group exploration, and ample free time in nature for integration
• Ideal for those seeking to deepen their self-awareness through movement, nature, and inner work
• Replenishing through nature’s medicine, where the ocean meets tropical paradise

This is a space where high performers and deep feelers alike can soften, recharge, and come home to themselves. A place where transformation happens not by striving, but by riding what is—in presence, together in community, in rhythm with nature.
