You, MOTHERSURFER
โEmpowering women through Surf by facilitating the access to this beautiful sportโ
I met so many girls, women, who were afraid of surfing (but kind of liked the idea). Surf is a sport, it is also a therapy. We can try together. The purpose is not to become a pro but to get a board and try to slide on the water and relax. Enjoying being in a friendly environement, feeling connected to the ocean.
I'm Sev. I've got 3 kids, a husband, a flat, a van and loads of fins that donโt fit on my surfboards (donโt ask me why)! I grew up near the ocean, lived in Paris, London and landed in Lisbon 6 years ago. This is where I started to surf regularly. I was nearly 40 and was feeling totally illegitimate. When I realised that this feeling was maybe created by some unfortunate social misogyny, I created Mothersurfer with friends as a way of surfing differently.
I believe that surfing makes you feel good and, because of that, makes you build a better world.
So Iโve been training a year with ASI and became a surf instructor this year. I organise beginners' classes so that women can break the barriers they sometimes put themselves and discover this sport.
Through our community, the idea is to help you to find all the information you need to surf in Lisbon. To share with you a maximum of our tricks and tips. We have been through it and we know it takes time to gather all the details!
If you have any questions, WhatsApp me, email us in French, in English, or in Portuguese, we will always reply.
We offer different products that we produce in Portugal to support our association.
To be part of it, follow us on Instagram and on Facebook!
Surf is for everyone.
