This course is aimed at anyone who wants to learn, or dramatically improve in kiting and surfing, whilst finely tuning their body and mind through daily yoga sessions, specifically designed by Kirsty.

 The morning and evening yoga sessions will allow you to regain balance in your body and mind, increase your strength, agility and focus and totally relax and calm your body and mind at the end of each salty day!

Kirsty first discovered her love for water sports on the Island of Lanzarote 13 years ago, while on holiday with her parents. Since then, 12 years later Kirsty has surfed for the welsh Team in the Europeans, competed in the windsurf world championships, gained 3 Kitesurf world titles and Master of the Ocean titles, along with many other competitive successes in freestyle and waves. In addition to her highly successful competitive side, Kirsty has completed a number of incredible long distance kitesurf crossings for charity and holds coaching certificates and years of teaching experience in Kitesufing, surfing, windsurfing, sailing and Yoga.

The course will be tailor made to suit your existing level in kitesurfing and surfing, with a maximum group size of 4 to ensure you receive one to one, personalised coaching throughout the week.

The week will consist of 5 highly rewarding, full days of kitesurfing, surfing and yoga with 2 days of free riding, fun and exploration!

Kirsty will take you through her own training, techniques, and daily routine that enables her to reach her goals, be energised by the ocean, and remain calm and centred through life’s storms on and off the water. Kirsty believes kitesurfing, yoga and surfing compliment each other perfectly and each one will contribute to you improving in the other, but most importantly Kirsty believes will begin to feel in tune with your body, mind and the wind and waves.

Lanzarote is blessed with excellent conditions for kitesurfing and surfing and many professional athletes come to this island to train for sea and land sports. It’s the perfect Island to work in harmony with the wind and waves, switch off from the rest of the world and focus on your passions and goals.

*  Accommodation for this retreat is on the un spoilt, rugged, North west coast in the peaceful coastal village of Charco del Palo.  You will have your own room in one of the spacious duplex houses in the small tranquil, complex overlooking the swimming pool, with views of the sea and ancient cactus lava fields.

  The morning yoga will take place around the pool on the Charco del Palo complex after a freshly prepared juice, but before a healthy, breakfast of fruit, fresh bread, cereals, homemade jams, eggs of your choice and fresh coffee.

After breakfast you will head over to the magical, long sandy beach of Famara on the West coast for a day of kitesurfing, surfing and an evening yoga session on the beach (depending on tide times and weather conditions).

A packed lunch will be taken to the beach and at the end of the day we will head back to the village of Charco del Palo for the option of taking dinner in the local pub/restaurant over looking the sea where dolphins are regularly spotted. Before finally heading to dreamland we will load up your kitesurf and surf action footage and photos on screen for some feedback and prizes for the best wipe-outs!

For 1 day at the end of the course (or before depending on wind and wave conditions) we will take the boat over to the small island of Graciosa for some walking, snorkelling, and relaxing on this beautiful, calm island where it is impossible not to relax and let go of any connection to the real world.

(Please let us know if you would like to arrange your own accommodation and we can re- calculate the price of the course, however we do recommend staying in the accommodation provided for the yoga sessions and daily arrangements.)

The daily schedule will vary depending on conditions and weather forecast but will consist of approximately 2-3 hours kitesurfing, 1- 2 hours of surfing and 2 hours of yoga daily. If the conditions are better for kitesurfing or surfing on one day we may focus on only one activity but all ocean time will be a learning and beneficial experience which will compliment both your surfing and kitesurfing skills.

If you opt to relax for one morning/afternoon by the pool or on the beach, or choose to participate in only one activity, then this is totally fine also! . It's your 'Experience' and part of it is getting to know your limits and when you need to give your body and mind a break! 

 Alternative dates, weekend workshops and other locations can also be arranged.

Only one space left of the May course (maximum 4 people)
