Improve your surf with Cosmic Cross-Step!

This retreat is designed for surfers who are looking to improve their longboarding skills. *must be able to catch own waves*

At Cosmic Cross Step we guests gain new skills and confidence on a longboard and have fun doing it! We will review the foundations of longboarding and move through each day building new skills while getting more comfortable with the rhythm of the ocean. Our smiling and talented coach will lead surf theory lessons on land and in the water as well as video analysis discussions. We believe video analysis is one of the best ways to truly build new habits in the surf. Topics you can expect to learn include: where to position yourself on the board, proper paddling technique, how to maneuver through the waves, where to position yourself on the wave, and other useful tricks. Based on your goals and where you’re at in your surfing journey, our coach will help you with turning, cross stepping, noseriding, and more! 

A lot of growth that happens in the water comes from practice on land. One of our other favorite things to share is the power of land drills, especially when it comes to building deeper body awareness in the water. 

In the water you can expect the surf coach and local guides to help you catch waves, maximize performance on the wave, choose the best wave, and know what to do when the wave has finished.

Experience the power of video analysis

While surfing, we will be shooting professional photos and videos to be used for video analysis and as souvenirs from the trip. Throughout the week, we will provide 5 analysis sessions of each surfer in the group. In these sessions, the coach will break down the waves and highlight areas that were done well, where adjustments can be made, and specific tips to help surfers work towards their goal. We believe watching yourself is one of THE best ways to progress in the water. You are able to see with your own eyes what you’re doing and how you can do it even better!

Unwind and recalibrate your mind, body, & soul

At Cosmic Cross Step we recognize the interconnectedness of all things. This means that our time in the water can only be enhanced if we are also aligned in our mind, body, and spirit. We believe in the power of stillness and time in nature to help bring people back to their center, find clarity, quiet their busy mind, and feel good overall. 

To balance out the yang energy of surfing and assist in your journey back to the body, we will include daily meditation and yoga sessions that complement the body’s needs. Depending on the tides, we will lead an energizing flow in the mornings to open up the body and prepare it for the surf and in the afternoons, a restorative yin class to allow for a deep space of rest, relaxation, and unwinding; one of the best gifts we can give ourselves. In addition to improving your surf skills we hope you will also leave with a calm, healthy, and happy soul.

Integrate with the local community

At Cosmic Cross Step we believe in the importance of leaving a place better than we found it and respecting the local communities around us. We aim to do our part to give back through beach clean ups, waste management education, gifting school supplies, or whatever else the nearby communities need. We are mindful when choosing the resorts we stay at and people we work with, questioning how they support the communities around them, where their food comes from, and more. We are visitors to these lands and are here to learn and give, rather than just take.
