Women-only surf takeovers

Sister Sessions: a lake takeover for women-only surfing
On the afternoon of Sunday 28th June, we handed the lake over for Sister Sessions – a women-only surf takeover with a full programme running alongside the waves.
The day included:

  • Surf confidence workshops, run by Danni Unway and supported by Surf Girl Mag.
  • A live DJ set with She Said Yes and Red Bull
  • Yoga classes
  • Surfskate lessons with Soulful Skate Co
  • A free surfboard demo with Torq
  • Exclusive offers in the shop

Look out for the next one
A Sister Sessions takeover returns in September (exact dates to be confirmed), with more of the same planned. We also have our usual monthly Sister Sessions Thursday slots running on the 23rd July and 20th August. Sign up to our newsletter or follow us on Instagram to be first to know when dates and booking go live.

Sister Sessions


We are passionate about making surfing accessible for everyone, so we want to remove as many barriers as possible to encourage people to try surfing. Our women-only Sister Sessions are just one of a few initiatives to attract a wider range of people to experience the joy of surfing, as well as its many physical and mental health benefits.

What always stands out the most is the atmosphere in the water. Surfers cheer each other on between waves and we’re frequently told it’s a great opportunity to connect with new people who share the same love of surfing.
