From Fear to Flow Workshop
It sucks to feel so stuck in your surfing because of fear, right? Let’s change that! Join this 3-hour workshop for surfers who are done letting fear from bigger waves, crowded lineups, or one too many late takeoffs ruin their love of surfing. You’ll learn practical tools and guided exercises to calm your nervous system, reconnect with your joy in the water, and start transforming fear at its roots.
For more courage, more waves, more fun — and a confident YOU.
You love surfing and want to keep progressing, but fear, worrying, or self-doubt keep getting in the way. Rather than feeling stoked, you feel frustrated and emotionally drained after every surf session. Whether it’s wipeouts, crowded lineups, or simply the nagging voice that says, “I’m not good enough” — fear has many faces. And if it’s holding you back, it’s time to shift something.
And this workshop is kick-starting that shift.
Imagine surfing with more courage, confidence, and calm.
Making better decisions, enjoying the process, and finally trusting yourself in the water. And how much more fun surfing would be if the ocean would be your happy place again?
We’ll go far beyond surface-level pep talks and delve into the realm of real, lasting transformation.
Join this 3-hour online live workshop and take a big step toward managing your fear and toward mental strength in your surfing. Led by Kim Chareonbood, a certified mental trainer and hypnotherapist with 13+ years of coaching experience.
Theory
Our mind is unique. It literally has superpowers. But to unlock those, it also needs to understand why it’s supposed to do something. It needs to connect the dots. And it needs clear instructions. That is why I will provide you with valuable background knowledge about fear and confidence and a roadmap to follow.
Fear & Confidence Tools
I want to give you more than knowledge. I want you to walk away with valuable tools that you can use to overcome your fear and boost your confidence in the line-up. You will learn helpful exercises and visualizations that you can use to continue building up your mental strength, in and out of the water.
Breath
Our breath is our life force. It is a tool that allows you to influence your nervous system directly, whether you need to calm down or pump yourself up. Increasing your lung capacity helps you to manage longer hold-downs. I want to introduce you to surf-specific breathwork so you can feel safe and confident in the water.
Fear starts in your head. Courage as well!
„FOR ME, SURFING MEANS BEING FREE. BEING IN THE MOMENT. I LOVE TO CONNECT WITH THE OCEAN. SURFING GIVES ME A LOT OF HAPPINESS.“
Thank you for this week and for putting that smile on my face! I cannot put into words how grateful I am for the things we talked through and the strategies and methods I‘ve learned 💛 Surfing is so much of a mental game (I think most sports are) and if your struggling with anything in that regard, it being fear, motivation, trauma, big waves, mindset for performance improvement, pressure or frustration, @fearless_surfer should be your go to! Kim has such a broad understanding of the mental game in sports and whatever I came up with I never felt judged, she took so much time for uncovering underlying issues with me and it really felt like she’s enjoying her work. There is so much more I could say but I just want to put it out there that I’m grateful for the work you do and I hope you will have a lot of success, a lot of waves and to see you again in the line-up some day 🌊
A good friend once told me that I shouldn’t just practice my manoeuvres in the water, but also visualize them in my mind.
So I did — and it worked right away. Incredible, I could hardly believe it! That flow moment made it clear to me how essential mental training really is.
To prepare for the Swiss Wavepool Championships, I booked mental training sessions with Kim. Through her coaching, I was able to stay connected to my genuine joy and motivation for surfing. This allowed me to experience amazing flow moments again and again.
As a result, I was thrilled to take first place at the Swiss Wavepool Championship 2021!
Kim, thank you so much for your valuable contribution to this journey!
I wished the week would never end. 😁
Thanks to my 1:1 coaching with Kim, I was able to release inner blocks that had been affecting my daily life and taking away from the quality of my surf sessions.
With patience and empathy, Kim guided me into a deeply relaxed state where I felt safe and supported — a space where I could identify, understand, and work through those blocks. Through our conversation and the tasks she gave me afterwards, things started to shift.
The session gave me the clarity and confidence I needed to make certain decisions in my life, be more present, and ultimately rediscover the joy in surfing.
Thank you so much for the amazing sessions, Kim!
