Roots 01: Foundations – Surf and Yoga Retreat Fuerteventura

Surf and Yoga Retreat
10–14 February 2026, Fuerteventura

A small-group surf and yoga retreat in Fuerteventura, built around body, breath, board and ocean. In fact, four days to build real foundations, in the water and on the mat, in partnership with FloYoga.

You can‘t build a strong surfer on a stiff, disconnected body. That’s why foundations start on the mat, and end in the water.


Put simply, this surf and yoga retreat in Fuerteventura isn’t about catching the most waves or nailing the perfect pose. Rather, it’s about building real foundations, in your surfing and in your practice, so that everything you learn actually sticks. Whether you have never surfed before, or never connected movement with breath, this is where it starts. No ego, no competition.

Just you, the ocean, and the foundations.

Over four days, surf coaching and yoga work together as one practice. In fact, daily yoga builds the mobility, stability and body awareness that surfing demands. Meanwhile, surf sessions and theory teach you to read the ocean and build your foundations in the water, step by step.

In the end, by the end of the retreat, you will understand your body better, in the water and out of it.

YOGA

Through sequences, postures and transitions, we work on mobility, stability, balance, coordination and breath, and how they all work together in movement. As a result, the practice helps you recognise your own patterns, asymmetries and limitations, building better control the more intensity and speed increase.

The goal, however, isn’t just flexibility. Instead, it’s learning to control and adapt your movement, in and out of the water.

SURF

We start by understanding the spot: the seabed, the currents, how the waves behave. From there, we assess everyone’s level and work on safety and the basics: positioning, pop-up, paddling.

Foundations are the heart of this work. Indeed, a house without solid foundations eventually collapses, and the same is true for surfing. That’s why we move step by step, quality before quantity, so you leave with a solid base and a clear sense of your own level.

HYDRATION

Staying hydrated matters just as much on the mat as it does in the water. That’s why this retreat is proudly refreshed by ActiveHop, a naturally brewed sparkling hop water with zero sugar and zero alcohol. In other words, one less thing to think about, so you can focus on your practice.

 

Payment Plan

The deposit of €200 is non-refundable and due by 10 December. After that, the second payment of €200 is due by 10 January, and remains refundable until 21 January 2027. Finally, the balance is paid on arrival.

CANCELLATION POLICY

The €200 deposit is non-refundable in all cases. However, the second payment of €200 is refundable if cancelled by 21 January 2027. On top of that, travel insurance covering trip cancellation is recommended.

Packing List

For clothing, bring a sweatshirt or jumper plus a light windbreaker, since evenings can be cool. In addition, pack at least 2 swimsuits, comfortable yoga clothing (leggings, breathable tops), light long trousers and long-sleeve tops for the evening, trainers, and flip-flops or comfortable sandals.

For surf, since the wetsuit is provided, you’ll just need a swimsuit to wear underneath, a beach or microfibre towel, and a comfortable change of clothes for after surfing.

For sun protection, face sunscreen is provided by us. However, body sunscreen is recommended, along with after-sun (optional) and a cap or hat.

Also useful: a reusable water bottle, a small backpack, your ID or passport, any personal medication, a power bank and cash for extra expenses.

One more thing: evenings in Lajares in February can be slightly humid, with occasional mosquitoes, so insect repellent may be useful (easily available locally).

How to book

First, DM Dani or Flo on Instagram, or send a message on WhatsApp, to reserve your spot. Then, send the €200 deposit to hold your place. After that, Dani or Flo will send you the payment details and next steps. Finally, once confirmed, you’ll receive a form to complete your details and a liability waiver to sign.
