The general principle of holism can be summarized with the following phrase: "The whole is greater than the sum of its parts."
A bike is more than the sum of the tires, the handlebars and the frame. Separately, the pieces could never walk. Therefore, this concept can be defined as the treatment of a topic or a problem, in such a way that all its components are considered.
For this reason, we design comprehensive surf training and personalized experiences, aimed at all those who have a deep curiosity about learning and progressing in this sport.
Offering guidance to set goals, we put at your disposal the necessary tools and knowledge to get closer to your goals.
TRAIN • CONNECT • PROGRESS
train
Surfing is a practice in which we depend on the synchronization of many factors: technical, biomechanical, environmental and personal. Which are complicated to assume and apply, especially if we have not been able to grow practicing this sport and we really want to learn or improve.
Jacobo Gomez Gil, founder and head coach of Holistic Surf, knows well what it means to start surfing after 25. A memory that allows him to empathize, very closely, with the feeling of "not knowing", and to teach from a different perspective than other surfers or coaches who have learned from their childhood.
For this reason, it attaches great importance to having a teaching structure and methodology. Designing for you a level progression system that serves as a guide to order and understand the steps in your evolution.
For this we offer several proposals:
INITIATION TO SURFING
Surfing is for everyone, regardless of your age or condition. Catching the first waves of your life is an experience you will never forget.
coaching
Technical improvement courses structured to maximize your progression. In them we delve into biomechanical, technical and environmental factors in order to achieve a more global perspective on your progression.
SURF TRIPS
Choose between the three different proposals. Get on our 4×4 and let's start the search for your perfect wave. Surf it in our company and take the best moments and waves of the trip in the form of photography.
WORKSHOPS
Spaces for training and learning, to deal in depth with the proposed topics: Freediving, Physical preparation for surfers or Board repair. Synthesizing years of work and research, in an intensive part-time.
"ONLY LOCALS"
These long-term planning trainings are aimed at locals and residents looking to have continuity in their training and closer monitoring during their progression.
CONNECT
But not everything is training… surfing is a lifestyle.
No matter how much information and resources we may receive, it is not until we connect more deeply with ourselves and our environment that we are able to apply the knowledge acquired effectively.
That is why we do not limit ourselves to developing and offering you a learning and progression system (technical and detailed), but we also want to help you break down those walls that may be blocking you on the path to your goals, teach you to fully enjoy the process and thereby continue to grow and progress in a more comprehensive… more holistic way.
Our way of connecting is in an active and natural way. In which we change the "mat" or mat, for a backpack and sunscreen. Always from a more adventurous spirit. Proposing experiences that have a real impact on you, the kind that change our lives and give a new focus to our perception of things.
For this we offer you:
Mangrove Exploration
Kayaking through the mangroves of Isla Cañas, we will enjoy the biodiversity of this wildlife refuge and we will take the time to breathe and connect.
waterfall trail
Walking through trails and ravines in search of waterfalls, where we can rest and enjoy an art workshop with a relaxed mind.
Community
Be part of the Waved and Save The Turtles Venao teams during your visit. Contribute your grain of sand, in the social support and natural conservation of our community.
PROGRESS
CAMPS
