Swell Co-Ed

2009 has been the year of Mother/Daugthers attending our retreats. It’s been so nice to see family come and feel empowered by learning a new sport together while taking some time to bond on Maui. One such Mother/Daughter duo are Leslie (mom) from Missippi and Amanda (daughter) from Seattle. The great part about this duo is that the daughter is typically the one who tries to coaxed their mother into attending our surf camps. Not this time. Leslie convinced Amanda to join her in accomplishing a dream of hers, ‘to learn how to surf.’ Leslie’s goal was to catch just one wave during her week stay with us. Well, this ‘goal’ was achieved in the first 4 minutes of her surf lesson! Leslie was an inspiration to all as she caught an incredible amount of waves and not to mention took the bigger sets. Daughter Amanda wasn’t behind as she caught many party waves with her mom. Thanks ladies for joining us and being such an inspiration to all our guests.
