Our Wave Riders Testimonials

Elise Myers
I am a beginner surfer and I was in a surfing accident a couple years ago, so I was very nervous to go out for the first time since the accident. I also have never done anything "therapy" related, and I wasn't sure what to expect. Both Sherri and Veronica were calming, grounding and incredible humans, and I immediately felt very comfortable! On land, Verónica asked about myself and my story, we set intentions and she was very thorough with her teaching. Sherri also had an incredible joyful and calming presence. She did a fabulous job explaining somatic breathing and teaching us how to do it as beginners. I have to admit, being in the water is a humbling experience but riding a wave and walking out of the water feeling accomplished and empower is unlike any other feeling! I no longer feel scared. I love the added component of mental health.
Sabrina Napoli
Taking a lesson with Vero was such a “breakthrough” moment for me! With such patience, guidance, and encouragement, Vero helped me work through mental barriers and guided me on improvements in my surf technique that were instantly noticeable. Small changes in my technique, how to read the waves better and timing, and confidence in the line up were my biggest takeaways. I am looking forward to taking monthly lessons to keep improving.
Hue Thien Ta
I had an incredible experience today during my very first surf therapy session. Verónica ensured we felt safe and comfortable while sharing valuable tips to improve our surfing skills. She helped us explore and understand our emotions/feelings to overcome our challenges in the ocean and surfing. Looking forward to make this a regular thing!!! ✨
Monique Weese
I'm SO grateful I found the RTWOW program! Verónica and her team are kind, helpful and fun! Verónica always has a positive attitude and makes surf lessons enjoyable. The lessons feels like a safe space emotionally and physically. Focusing on the emotional aspects of surfing feels like a misstep for many surfers, but this program nails it on the head. This program is so much more than just surfing... I highly recommend this experience!
