My good friend died doing this, so please get a new hobby.
sorry to hear 😔
Awsome thanks dude
glad you found this helpful!
Thank you, Pilar, for this wonderful instruction and demonstration of yoga core strength.
so glad you found the video helpful. ❤
É o peitooooo!!!!
🌊🌊🌊
Muchas gracias! Excelente, mi segundo día haciéndola. Es el reto que mi espalda necesita.
Gracias a usted! 🥰
This was beautiful! Im teaching my girlfriend how to surf and bodysurf :) and i imagined ourselves in your retreat ❤❤❤❤❤
that's awesome! 👏 Definitely check it out! thank you for watching,
What's the name of the cocnut tour?
it doesn't really have a name haha. It's a pretty informal tour that's run by a man named Davíd from his house. His instagram and Facebook handles (doesn't have a website) are "Coco time Punta Lagarto." Facebook here --> facebook.com/ProductosDeCocoPuntaLagarto/ We usually deal with the bookings for our guests, by communicating directly with him. The tour can also be booked through Costa Rica Culture Tours, and there it's just referred to as the "Coconut tour". Let me know if there's any other way I can help with this.
I know how to body surf but this was an excellent tutorial
awesome, thank you so much for watching!
beautiful video ! thanks
Glad you liked it!
It is called a handboard. I use two but fiberglass.
Hmmm, never heard that before. We have always called it a hand plane, but we do see that the company SLYDE calls them handboards. Thanks for the tidbit of info. It's always great to learn something new.
So few videos on topic. Thanks for making. I been doing body surfing for over 30 years
couldn't agree more. thank you for watching!
???? Of course the way you've been popping up daily for years feels "athletic" and "natural" to you!!
Where specifically do you feel like you're having challenges? We'd love to help you make it feel natural and athletic to you too. One tip is to practice the motion 10-15 times per day and even film yourself doing it.
'Promo SM'
Thanks for watching. We definitely promote picking a safe and durable beginner surfboard.

Such a great tutorial video! So many helpful tips. Really appreciate it. Thanks for sharing 🙏
Thank you!! Glad you found it helpful.
Thanks for sharing information Question When is the best time to visit this place Are there any packages?
Great question! We actually wrote up a full blog answering just that question. There are pros and cons to visiting during all seasons. I'd check out our article here -- www.bodhisurfyoga.com/best-time-of-year-to-visit-uvita-costa-rica As well, if you're interested in exploring any packages, we have them outline at our site here: www.bodhisurfyoga.com/
Great location, super cool vibes. Travis was very accommodating and worked with my schedule even though we didn’t have the numbers for a class. Luis, my instructor was chill, supportive and just about perfect at pushing my boundaries safely. My only downside was my own. Should have prepared better cardio. I plan on some more individual lessons as soon as the surfs right. Next trip I hope to bring my wife for some yoga classes. I don’t think you can go wrong with these folks.
I’m about to go for a bodysurf… no sandbars, decent combo swell… huge shore pound! This is how I save $ NOT going to the chiropractor!
Sounds awesome!
I want to be a waterman😂
Love that.
I usually just tell people to position yourself in front of a wave with your ass higher than your shoulders, for brevity's sake, but this instruction is much better in the details. I would add to thank the ocean each time before you enter, but that is a personal decision. I look at it as trying to stay on the good side of what can be a great and powerful friend.
Love that. ❤
Making me miss Hawaii and CR
Feel free to join us anytime.
Library
Great add to the library, thanks.
But wait! How do i bloody stop??? On a crowded beach that is very important!
Practice duck diving as you are propelled on the wave, and letting the wave carry your body and legs over your head as you tuck your head and do a somersault roll, leaving you behind the wave when you come up to the surface. Just make sure it's deep enough when doing this so you don't injure yourself by hitting sand below!
Yes, that is very important. There are several ways to stop. Hit up our pal Spencer via thebodysurfblog.com/ and I'm sure you'll get a few great answers! More to come soon!
@@teammurdoch head down in shallow waters?
@@SurvivalSquirrel I addressed that in my last sentence. No, if it's shallow then obviously just put feet down and stand up.
Felicidades por ser un ejemplo en nuestra comunidad! Bravo!
Gracias. Thank you. We LOVE our community and being a community-engaged business.
Awesome video my friends. We are so proud of you all for your love and commitment that you express to people and our planet. 🎉
this is so sad tbh
Bummer, what about this is so sad?
Awesome instruction!
Glad you think so! Thanks for watching!
Looks like fun!
Right!?
Great help was looking for something like this to insert in my gym trainning. One question how should i proceed with this? 4 sets each exercises, 30 sec each one with 30 sec rest between exercises? Or By reps? What's your advice? Thanks I'm subscriving
Thank you Antonio! We added it to the description in case others have the same question, but we do recommend 3-4 sets of 15-20 reps for each exercise!
@@BodhiSurfYoga Perfect thank you so much, will be waiting for more great content, keep it up
@@Toniula05 - You bet. Thanks for watching!
Make more amazing videos. This channel needs Promo SM.
Thanks, we are doing our best to produce content that inspires, educates, and empowers.
Can we see a more advanced tutorial now? Like different techniques in the water and when to use each one and even how to spin
ua-cam.com/video/puPoeqj5tZ8/v-deo.html
Yes, we have some more advanced content in the library. We can also recommend checking out the thebodysurfblog.com/
