Gather on the Oregon Coast for an immersive surf and yoga retreat designed for intermediate surfers ready to elevate their craft. Refine cleaner, more powerful turns, fluid cross-steps, and confident nose rides while developing the technical tools and mindset to navigate bigger, more critical waves. We'll also explore the subtleties that shape a seasoned surfer: reading the lineup, positioning with intention, and embodying grounded assertiveness in the water. Daily yoga will support mobility, strength, and nervous system regulation, helping you paddle out with clarity, presence, and quiet confidence. When you're not surfing, unwind in the sauna, hot tub, or cold plunge, savor delicious meals with your new community of seastrs, and settle your nervous system through restorative practices. This retreat is an invitation to connect with the ocean, with others who share a love for surfing, and most importantly, with yourself.
Hi, I’m Olivia Loprinzi - a passionate surfer, teacher, & practitioner. I offer movement, touch, and sound as doorways into greater ease, regulation, and whole-body well-being. As an RYT-500 yoga instructor, certified Foundation Training teacher, and trained in Zenthai Shiatsu and sound healing, I weave multiple lineages of care to support people in feeling more connected, resilient, and at home in their bodies. For over 20 years, Newport has been my home, and I hold deep love and gratitude for this coastline and the community I’m honored to serve.
Hi! I'm Kayli Jones, the founder of Sea People Surf Education. You’ll find me at every event, being driven by a passion to connect as many people as I can to the natural world around us. I started teaching surf lessons in 2021, using my background as a yoga teacher and outdoor educator to seamlessly integrate surf skills, that I had just learned myself, into a whole body learning practice that is familiar and accessible to most Every Body I teach. If you see me out of a wetsuit it might be guiding field trips with Yakona Nature Preserve or foraging for wild foods from land or sea (or highway). If you see me, always come say Hello!
