Before or after surf lessons you will be supervised by Rebecca, who will be with you all weekend at the surf camp!
His motto: to practice a moving, playful and rigorous yoga for a functional body and a peaceful mind… or the other way around!
Learn more about Rebecca:
After years of practicing various disciplines (classical dance, pole, aerial hoop, French boxing, capoeira, snowboarding, contortion, floor barre, balances…), Rebecca discovered in Vinyasa a method that doesn't sacrifice her physical integrity on the altar of aesthetics or performance, but rather allows her to heal a body naturally distorted and damaged by too much poorly executed exertion. For the first time, it's about considering the body as a whole and feeling better in it. Trained by Gérard Arnaud with Isabelle Huenul (200 hours), the De Gasquet Institute (70 hours), and Ayu Yoga School (370 hours, including 50 hours of inversions and 30 of functional mobility), she offers flows to create strength, flexibility, and motor control through joy and sweat.
Hailing straight from Brittany with his huge smile, Yann is the embodiment of good humor.
Always up for a game, a session or a joke, he puts everyone at ease from the very first moment.
His thing? He transmits surfing as an energy to be shared, and his vibe will surely take you further than expected.
