The Waves of Wellness (WOW) learn-to-surf program uses surfing as a conduit to explore, stimulate and facilitate positive physical and mental health outcomes.
Each week, the program addresses different mental health and wellness topics through group discussion supported by clinical expertise, allowing participants to learn new skills and strategies with like-minded individuals. The session concludes with a learn-to-surf lesson, which teaches surfing skills and allows participants to build resilience and develop coping strategies to support better mental health.
This is a learn-to-surf program; no prior surfing experience is necessary, and all levels of experience are welcome.
