About this Retreat
Teacher
Always with the best vibes and when he skates it feels like he's flying. His motivation to teach skateboarding comes from his belief that it can change lives, as it did for him - skateboarding helped him get out of trouble, be more aware of the things we can't control and give solutions to the things life throws at us. His patience and lightness can help you lose your fears and move forward with a lot of fun.
Founder, Teacher and operating director of Surfskate Society.
Since he was 12 years old, he fell in love with the world of skateboarding, going from street skate to the passionate surfskate. His heart is in skateboarding, where he found the philosophy of life that has helped him grow and overcome fears. Every session he is ready to share this passion with you.
