Why OM you may ask?

NEVER DOUBT THE DATE

Rash guards, leggings, one pieces, and bikinis. What works? What doesn’t? Find a surf outfit that stays on in the surf.

My pregnant surfing experience so far…….

I found out I was pregnant at the beginning of my work season as a Surf Instructor. I thought to myself how long can I surf? Is It safe to surf? Should I be pushing people into waves?

There is no one size fits all answer to surfing during your pregnancy. So I did and I will continue doing what feels right to me and my body. Most importantly I am listening to my intuition.

Firstly you need to talk to your healthcare provider and discuss surfing with them. I was told not to start any new exercises and to just stick to what I normally do. Being pregnant and surfing for me isn’t about improving my surfing. I stick to what I know I can do, not the time to try new tricks and big barrels.

Here is what my journey has been like so far with a bun in the oven.

How has travel changed with Covid-19 & how to be a responsible traveler in 2021

I have no doubt most people are ready to travel after over a year of social distancing and lock downs. It is normal to have mixed emotion about traveling during Covid. Feelings of guilt, selfishness, fear and anxiety are common. Most tourist based economy’s need you to survive. They don’t have the option to work at home or get financial aid. Here at Sister Surf retreats we are doing our part and following local laws to stay open. We want tourism, the locals want tourism and as long as we all are responsible then please come support us. It has been a long year to say the least and we are so happy to be up and running again. Here are some details and traveling to Puerto Rico and Costa Rica.

Our days orbit around the tide

The three of us sisters are water beings through and through. Day to day routines shift with the tides. In Playa Grande we surf near the high tide, if it is an early morning high tide we dawn patrol, midday high tide we begin our days with a yoga class. One thing is for sure each day begins with a cup of piping hot coffee or tea. We rise with the sun and go to sleep closely after it sets.

Here is what I do every morning to set the pace for my day
