Retreats
Sometimes the best thing we can do is immerse ourselves in an experience.
-
The Art of Contrast is a one-day women’s surf and yoga event designed to reconnect you with your strength, serenity, and sisterhood amid life’s uncertainties. Spend the day with Kate Fox (surf) and Arielle Beauduy (yoga) as we expand our comfort zones: riding waves and feeling the ocean, then integrate through yoga and sound healing.
Whether you are new to surfing or are seeking a deeper connection with it, this immersive day offers a supportive space to push boundaries, release tension, and come back to center.

Lisa Alfano
At age 50, Lisa found salvation in triathlon, which gave her a sense of community and turned her life around. At age 57, she gave herself another midlife boost by taking up surfing, which she says brings her “joy and peace no matter what is happening". Lisa believes there is something truly powerful about being surrounded by a community of women in and out of the water — the energy, the joy, the community and connection. Everything we do is in community and support of each other to actively engage our muscles, mind, heart & soul.
Lisa's love of travel and adventure has her living part time in Portland, OR and part time in Encinitas, CA and part time wherever the warmth and surf find her.
