HOW ?
How can you ensure this person reaches the best performance possible in just one week? The only way is by knowledge. Knowing exactly where we can shorten their learning curve, how can we make them feel right, and also how they can understand the sea – an element that never quite repeats itself. The learning process has much to consider. We should work with what is given, in this case the real biomechanical, physical, electrical and chemical functioning necessary for the retention of sensory-motor information in memory.
THE SCIENCE
Neuroscience tells us that in order to learn, a specific chemical is needed – the dopamine. And this chemical is released into our bloodstream when this learning is done with excitement, happy and pleasant conditions. Dopamine increases brain memory and also creates motivational pathways. Negative emotions, such as the frustration of failing and the comparison with other people’s unwillingness, promote barriers to motor and brain memory. Therefore, learning can and should be easy and fun. Falling over and over again it’s not fun. From this point of view, I think, everyone needs adjusted learning process for individual skill and physical conditioning, especially any adult!
SURF EDUCATION
We will be organizing your program after a first session to analyze your skills and needs. Considering the forecast for that week, we will propose the best day-by-day practice for your best performance. We will surf at the best spots and tides for a whole week. Nothing less than the best wind and swell combination for your level of surfing. Leave it all up to us. You will have a break day in the middle of the week, to relax and explore our amazing Baleal backyard and take advantage of one of our complimentary extra activities. This is a unique experience with a professional Surfer and advanced Sports teacher – Inês Tralha, former National
Portuguese Champ, and her dedicated training crew.
