SURF & YOGA
CAMP
Surfing gets your soul,
once you feel the wave lift you up and thrust you forward you begin to realise
how powerful but beautiful mother nature is
and how vast the universe really is,
this can’t help but put a smile on your face in absolute awe
of how beautiful it is to have participated in life.

MEET YOUR TEACHERS
NICA ROSARIO AND CEDRIC PLISSONNIER
NICA (SURFMORE COACHING)
I was born in Carcavelos (Lisbon). I started to surf when I was 12 years old,
because I found a surf board in the garbage and took it with me to the beach.
Since that day I never stopped, passing 6 to 8 hours in the water.
At the age of 14 I became one of the youngest professional surfers in Portugal and continued as a sponsored professional surfer for the following 12 years.
My coaching methods are based on my professional surf career and surf performance studies.
CEDRIC
I began to practice Yoga at the age of 20, and since 2009 I am teaching dynamic Yoga.
For the last 15 years I spent my holidays in the Algarve, where I followed my youth dream of being at the ocean and riding the waves.
That was also the place where I met Nica, my former surf instructor.
Last year me and my family moved to Portugal to find a magical place where we could organise retreats.
Few months later we fell in love with the land and the people of Malama. So here we are to share our passions YOGA & SURF.
