I love teaching and sharing my passion for the ocean with others. As a surf instructor, I enjoy helping people learn new skills, gain confidence, and experience the beauty of nature and life on the water.
I believe yoga is a way to reconnect, ground, and recharge through nature. As a yoga teacher, dancer, and surfer, I offer grounding, energizing, and lighthearted classes.
I enjoy connecting with people, noticing the beauty in everyday moments, and sharing positive energy. I genuinely love helping others where I can, and creating connections along the way.
When I’m on the water surfing, I feel like a child again — it’s pure freedom and joy. I love the water and the wind. Sharing that feeling with others through teaching is something I truly enjoy.
I started windsurfing at a very young age and have been passionate about it ever since. I’m on the water almost every day. I’m highly ambitious and always striving to grow.
I’m on the water almost every day, improving myself and deepening my connection with the sport. I really enjoy sharing this journey with others and supporting their progress.
How do I get to Alaçatı?
Fly into İzmir Adnan Menderes Airport (ADB) — direct flights available from most major European cities. From the airport it’s a 55-minute taxi or shuttle to Alaçatı. We’re happy to arrange a reliable transfer service for a fee.
Do I need any experience in windsurfing or yoga?
None at all. Both the surf and yoga sessions are suitable for beginners. If you already have experience, your instructor will simply work with you at a more advanced level. All abilities are welcome.
What do I do outside teaching hours?
Alaçatı’s charming old town is full of cafés, boutiques and restaurants to explore. The beach is right on your doorstep, with many other stunning Çeşme bays with white sand beaches just a short drive away. We can also arrange a trip to nearby spa, massage and thermal pool facilities — the perfect way to recharge between sessions.
What if there’s no wind?
No wind days are rare in September, but if they happen, we rearrange the surf session to a windier time slot or swap in a stand-up paddleboard session. Your instruction hours are always fulfilled — we just stay flexible.
What if there’s too much wind?
Strong wind days are actually great for learning! Instructors will assign appropriate equipment for the conditions. If the wind is genuinely unsafe, we’ll move to a protected bay or substitute a theory/beach session.
What should I bring?
Comfortable yoga clothes, swimwear, sunscreen and a sense of adventure. Wetsuits, all surf equipment and yoga mats are provided. A light jacket for evenings is handy in late September. A full packing list will be sent on booking.
