Baxter will also provide a general analysis of participation, customize training programs, and conclude with a farewell dinner on Sunday. Only a limited number of participants will have the opportunity to join this unique experience.

Professional surfer and WaterWoman, Luchy Cosoleto, will be hosting a SUP SURF clinic. As a two-time world champion and two-time Pan American champion, Luchy will share her experience and knowledge.

The event will kick off at 9 a.m. at Hotel Sayulinda with a talk to assess the levels and goals of each participant.
