Welcome to the Waves for Change global surf therapy community!

Waves for Change (W4C) launched as a child-friendly mental health programme in 2011. We have worked with researchers, universities and community members in coastal communities around the world to design, pilot, and share programmes fusing the rush of surfing with evidence-based mind/body therapeutic activities.

We know surf therapy works and we want to share it with surf communities around the world, so more people can experience the emotional, mental, and physical health benefits of the stoke of surfing. The activities and coach practices we’re sharing can be integrated into any surf community and structure - from an informal surf club to an established surf school. They are a guide, and can be adapted to context, conditions, your participants, and the resources available.

This session is IMMERSION.
The Immersion activity is a group activity we can do to build a safe space and strong community at our sessions. We practice looking after each other, asking for help when we need it, and respecting our own and each other’s boundaries in the sea.

Sisonke, simunye - we are one, we are together!
