With 4: 2+ hour instructed surf sessions throughout the weekend, you will definitely have the opportunity to learn and grow your surfing abilities. For 2 of those sessions we will be able to split into 2 groups of Beginner and Intermediate surfers to better meet everyone's goals and needs. You will also always have the choice to just play in the ocean with or without boards to get to know her and conquer any fears or hesitations with safe support and guidance.

We will explore a connection with ourselves, our peers and our ocean; through SURFING, YOGA, breathing, meditation, reflection, conversation, hiking, camping and laughing!

It's a GLAMPOUT! We can pitch you a private tent with a blow up mattress or you can shack up in our heated cedar shed with bunk-bed cots. Think wholesome summer camp vibes!
You will always be welcome in the house to relax on the couches, use the kitchen, and have 24hr access to the bathroom.
Meet your host
Hi, I’m Kyla.
I started Pacific Coast Surf Lessons with my partner Nick in 2019. I’m a proud mom of two bright young girls. I have seven years in recovery, and I was recently diagnosed with ADHD—an answer that finally brought clarity to a lifetime of imposter syndrome, self-doubt, and social anxiety.
Motherhood, especially postpartum seasons, altered the confidence I had in my body and my abilities—particularly in the ocean—many moments like this have pulled me out of alignment with myself over the years; leaving me to question who I am at my core. Again and again, I’ve found my way back through the sand between my toes, the roaring vastness of the ocean, the humble surf sessions, and the practice of deep mindful yoga. These places and practices continuously ground me, helping me find the space to not only show up for my family, but to also show up for myself. I've learned to listen and feel my body as it changes, honor my mind through different phases of adulthood, and meet myself daily with more compassion and grace.
I’ve spent much of my life working with kids, teaching swimming, surfing, gymnastics, art, skiing, and I’m a former lifeguard. Caring for others has always felt natural and it's the same feeling I get while hosting the women's retreats. I love inviting you into my home, supporting you in your surfing journey, and harnessing my late Grandma Cookie by making homemade meals and being a local guide for the weekend.
I hope to create the space I once longed for and that I am just recently finding for myself—a place where women can connect honestly, feel at home in their bodies, and settle into who they are becoming. A space where we learn to value ourselves fully, flaws and all, with laughter, love and support.
