Surfing
Surfing is not just a sport to us, it is a way of life! It requires willingness, dedication and hard work,
and yet at the same time, is an immense amount of fun. Living a surfing lifestyle means really connecting with
the ocean – waking up to check the waves, planning your day according to the tides, and experiencing the relaxation of siting on your board waiting for the swell, and then the exhilaration of catching a wave.
It is a truly unique sport.
With years of surf experience, we know that everyone has different abilities, paces of learning and learning styles. For this reason, we provide all the support you need – a lot or a little – to make sure your surfing experience is the best you have ever had!
Yoga
The practice of yoga dates back to ancient times, and is based on a philosophy which seeks to harmonize the system of development for the body, mind, and spirit. Practicing yoga gives you the unique opportunity to feel a complete sense of peace and well-being, while also providing a feeling of being at one with the environment. The practice of yoga helps you calm the mind and center yourself through focusing and regulating your breath.
In this way, it has the potential to alleviate health problems and reduce stress.
At Vikara Lifestyle, our yoga sessions work on balance, coordination, core muscles and flexibility, at a pace that is tailored to your needs. So, don't worry if you have never seen a yoga mat in your life. We guarantee the experience will be extremely rewarding!
