Find out more about our team!

Alex – our head coach 

In 2006, I landed in Fuerteventura for a windsurfing trip with friends.
The simplicity of the island, the calm and the vast playground for the practice of water sports conquered me. I never left again !

In Germany, I was a school teacher, and studied sports science. I am your surf instructor at the Academy and supervise you methodologically, while sharing my passion for surfing, the ocean and my nutritional knowledge for surfers.

Apart from salty water, I have a passion for permaculture ! My latest projects are the creation of a community agricultural farm in the north of Fuerteventura, and a fish pond! Have a look at my projects & adventures 😊 :  A. Hülsberg Permaculture

Sophie – our manager

Swiss girl- loving the heat, the sea & the island life style: I immigrated to the rock in 2010. Then, the big journey started: launch of our surf academy, wedding, birth of our daughter Nayra, surf trips and many adventures…I learnt to surf, to dive, to SUP and to…slow down on the island.

In the middle of the pandemic, I’ve had the cool opportunity to do a sailing course and a Reiki healing & Indian massage training! I’m into self-development and I’m always involved into some learning!

Also, as in my “ex life” I was working for the ICRC (Int. Committee of the Red Cross), it is naturally that I applied as a volunteer at the local Spanish Red Cross.

I am your contact for your surf lesson/trip booking to our paradise, and invite you to have a Reiki session, if it resonates 😊 Aloha, Insta: Reiki_with_Sophie

Your introduction to permaculture
Driven by the desire to grow and consume their own organic fruits and vegetables for health, and 0 miles to reduce carbon footprint and global warming, the farm (fina) was started in 2020 by a group of friends, motivated to grow plants in the arid desert! During 2 sessions of about 3 hours each, you put on your gardening gloves and discover the ecological finca

Alex, your guide who has studied permaculture, shows you around this extraordinary place and provides the appropriate explanations. Then, you go to work; harvesting fruits and vegetables, caring for hens, maintaining and creating fields, building new structures, irrigation, maintaining a fish pond, planting seeds, developing new projects, etc.; your hands are in the earth, you are fully aware of the present moment and in connection with nature.

     

Who is it for ?
For people willing to (re)connect with nature, to get back to basics. Become aware of the plants that provide us with the fruits and vegetables that we consume on a daily basis and take care of the hens that provide us with eggs and meat.
For people who wish to better know the world of organic and the differences with so-called industrial agriculture. Family welcome.

– bring working clothes/shoes. A pair of gardening gloves, a knife, sunscreen, a cap and water.

 

What is permaculture?
Both ancestral and innovative, permaculture takes up and improves the teachings of nature to aim for abundance and food autonomy. This principle of permanent culture, created by the biologist Bill Mollison in the 1970s in Australia, is currently causing a stir.

Mainly because it is used in urban vegetable gardens developing all over the world, in connection with the Incredible Edibles movement.
Its ultimate goal: to feed all the people on the planet, and in a sustainable way. What a bet! “It’s a movement that has gained momentum in a few years, explains Carine Mayo, author of the Permaculture Guide. It provides answers to those who want to invent a society less dependent on oil or simply rediscover a link with nature by cultivating their garden”. (source jardinier-malin.fr)

On demand
There is also the possibility of “level 2” permaculture training over an entire week, for people wishing to set up their own plantations at home with a functional ecosystem according to their available space. Consult us!

What IS REIKI ?

Reiki (霊気, /ˈreɪki/) is a Japanese form of energy healing, whose purpose is to restore the energy balance in the body.

Reiki practitioners use a technique called palm healing through which a “universal energy” is said to be transferred through the palms of the practitioner to the patient in order to encourage emotional, mental, physical and spiritual healing.

This exchange of energy has the effect of triggering in the body of the receiver a process of setting in motion his energies which will allow him to face his pains, his emotional blockages or to overcome stress and fatigue.

WHAT IS A TRADITIONAL INDIAN HEAD MASSAGE ?

It’s an ancient form of massage, based on a traditional system of medicine known a Ayuverdic

You enjoy an amazing oil massage on your neck, upper arms, shoulders, and upper back. The traditional Indian head massage technique is very special; it consists of repetitive movements on the energy centers of the chakras. Then comes the scalp massage and we finish with a facial massage.

The benefits of this massage are seen directly after the treatment: removing toxins, boosting immunity, releasing anxiety and muscles, just to mention a few ones. Drink plenty of water and let you body heal itself !

 

 

Willing to have more energy ?

We have noticed that some of you wished to have more energy for the surf sessions.

Surfers who practice on a regular base pay attention to various aspects;

To start with; to be in good physical condition to be able to surf the waves, and to paddle long distance on the reef. The surfers practice other sports out of the water to be fit. Some of them work out, go running, free diving, swimming and it is also very popular to skate on a carver to train the muscles and at the same time, the surf the technique. Yoga is also a good activity to have the flexibility to perform the surf moves.

To continue, the mental preparation is important: knowing your level, your skills in the ocean; your limits and therefore your strengths and weaknesses.

And what also makes a big difference is the diesel you consume!
Diet is a very important factor to have the right energy for a demanding surf session. The last years, Alex our head coach has been sharing with you his advice on a healthy diet for a longer surf session! We suggest you replace soda drinks by fresh fruit juices, consuming food with high energy and replacing the usual snack chips by dried fruits. You’ll hear more about it during your surf training with us !

10 years anniversary !

10 years ago, Alex was giving his first surf class under the name of his own surf Academy to @oliver.filipzik
~~
The passion remains the same, the Aloha Surf spirit is still present and we are still stoked to welcome you to share UNFORGOTTABLE moments.
~~
We are really, really proud of our occupation. We offer much more than a surf course, we go beyond the art of surfing and share Joys of life with you, and we slow down for a week your pace.
~~
We share with you our life style; we educate you on health care, we improve your mobility, we make your mind stronger, we educate you on Permaculture and a sustainable way of life, we connect you with the nature – the elements – and the essence of life and we have spiritual chats …
~~
You basically come for a surf course with strangers, and you leave the island with new friends, stronger surf skills and transformed by the island spirit 😊
THAT Is VERY SATISFYING 😃🙌🏻🤙🏼
~~
The credit is yours, you can thank yourself for choosing us. You’re the one who picked us.
From the bottom of our heart, we thank you for joining our surf academy and came to cross our path… Because you too… Have an impact on us and we are grateful to have met you and grow with us and make a better world.
~~
If you came to visit us 10 years ago, we invite you to come again. Within the years alex has turned around the concept of the surf course, he adapts the technique, the tools of the coaching and the pedagogy. He constantly innovates to keep on being the best surf academy 😎😉🤙🏼
