Sign up online at www.WBSurfCamp.com or call 1-866-361-GIRL to reserve your spot.

Yoga Surf RetreatWrightsville Beach, N.C., July 13, 2010 – WB Surf Camp is offering its annual Women’s Only Surf Camp and Yoga Retreat from August 14 through August 19, 2010 in Wrightsville Beach, N.C.  Providing a safe and relaxing environment for women to learn how to surf or improve their surfing skills, this popular Women’s Surf Camp brings together women of diverse backgrounds, beliefs, occupations, ages, and life experiences.  It offers the ultimate stateside getaway for moms and career women or simply a safe and supportive introduction to the world of surfing.

Women who participate in this surf camp receive professional surf lessons under a 3:1 student to instructor ratio.  The trained and certified surf instructors use a progressional and proven teaching system that helps build confidence, provide personalized attention, and ensure safety, relaxation, fun, and freedom all while challenging personal limits in a noncompetitive atmosphere.

In addition to professional surf instruction, participants in our yoga surf retreat also take part in daily yoga practice from a certified yoga teacher.  Daily yoga practice serves to enhance the women’s surf camp experience by focusing the mind and body and producing a reflective, energized, and empowered state of being.  Yoga and surfing share a similar mentality of being in-the-moment, acutely aware and connected with the earth’s energy.  They both also help build physical strength and endurance.  In addition, yoga introduces increased flexibility to help prevent injury and start to eliminate aches and pains in the body.  This combination Surf and Yoga Retreat for Women is an ideal way to relax, rejuvenate, exercise, enjoy the outdoors, be healthy, and give women the time and environment they need to focus on themselves.

WB Surf Camp founder Rick Civelli comments, “Every year, we receive amazing reviews and feedback from the women who take part in our Women’s Surf Camp.  They tell us that they’ve always wanted to learn to surf and this camp provided the best environment for breaking through their comfort zone and attaining goals they had set for themselves.  They value the supportive and friendly atmosphere of having all women in the camp and the relationships they build over the week that last beyond the camp.  We are excited to be able to offer a Women’s Surf Camp and hope we can help foster the community of Wahines around the world.”

The Women’s Surf Camp from WB Surf Camp is being offered August 14 through August 19, 2010 in Wrightsville Beach, N.C.   Registration is currently open both online at http://www.WBSurfCamp.com/camps/camp_women_only.asp and by phone at 1-866-361-GIRL.
