Vision

Our vision is to create a vibrant and inclusive community that empowers children in the Dominican Republic through the transformative power of surfing. Our group is committed to fostering a deep connection to the ocean, building life skills, and providing valuable job opportunities for the future generation. Our multifaceted approach combines surfing education, coaching courses, and job placement to create a holistic and sustainable impact.

Surfing Education and Skill Development: We provide children across different communities in the Dominican Republic with access to high-quality surfing education. Through structured programs, workshops, and camps, we teach kids not only how to surf but also instill values such as teamwork, resilience, and environmental consciousness. By fostering a love for the ocean and outdoor activities, we inspire a lifelong passion for healthy lifestyles.
Judging Courses: in addition to teaching children how to surf, we offer courses on judging in surfing competitions. By understanding the technical aspects of scoring and evaluating surfing performances, children can develop a deeper appreciation for the sport. This knowledge can also open up potential avenues for them to become judges in local and international surfing events, providing them with valuable skills and opportunities
Online and In-Person Learning: Recognizing the importance of accessibility, we offer a blend of online and in-person learning opportunities. Online courses allow individuals from various backgrounds to access valuable knowledge without geographical constraints. In-person training provides hands-on experience, practical skills, and a sense of community that fosters personal connections.
Job Opportunities for the Future Generation: Our goal is to create pathways for the children we work with to secure meaningful job opportunities related to the surfing industry. Whether it’s becoming a professional surfer, coach, judge, or working in fields such as event management, marketing, or sustainable tourism, we support them in their journey toward a fulfilling career.
Community Engagement and Environmental Stewardship: Beyond the sport itself, we emphasize the importance of environmental stewardship. We organize beach clean-ups, educational workshops on marine conservation, and promote responsible tourism practices. By nurturing a sense of responsibility for the environment, we will ensure that our future generations can enjoy and protect the natural beauty of the Dominican Republic.

In summary, our vision for the Children’s Surf Group in the Dominican Republic is to create a platform that empowers children through surfing, education, and job opportunities. By equipping them with essential life skills, technical knowledge, and a strong connection to the ocean, we aim to pave the way for a brighter and more sustainable future for both the children and the communities they belong to.
