About the concept
Socean
Socean is a concept that combines surfing with personal development. The foundation of our concept is based on three main pillars: Soul, Ocean & Social – from which the name Socean is derived.
We are looking forward to many great, nutritious and fun moments at the beautiful west coast!
Aloha & Love

Surfing is like living. You struggle, you breathe, you wait, you feel, you take action. It demands mindfulness, it demands stubbornness, it demands ro, it demands courage. When it all aligns and the timing is right - you fly! And you're willing to go through all the struggles once again.”
- Mie Iskou Bergmann
Surf with instructors
Lær at surfe i Cold Hawaii eller Marokko
Surfing is a fun and challenging activity that can provide a sense of mastery and pleasure. As a participant on Socren Retreat, you will learn how to surf in the north sea waves in the good hands of savvy Socean instructors. Surfing provides training of the body core and balance, and strengthens muscles in the legs, arms and back. At the same time surfing requires precision and good coordination between the body and the board, which can improve balance and coordination skills. We call this full body workout!
Personal development
Find the flow, acceptance, and values
As a participant on Socean Retreat, you get the knowledge and exercises to make you more aware of what the sea and the sport of surfing can teach you about acceptance, flow, trust, and values. You will also learn about all of the positive effects of being in and by the sea, with knowledge from Blue Mind theory. You will find there's a consistent theme through our surf sessions, exercises in personal development and yoga.

What a wonderful retreat in the most delightful surroundings of Klitmøller. The surf instructors were highly skilled and patient, making it easy for both beginners and more experienced surfers to enjoy and develop their skills on the water. (...)
The combination of surfing and personal development was an eye-opener for me. It made perfect sense and has only increased my passion for the surfing world and everything it entails.
I would definitely recommend this surf retreat to anyone looking to improve their surfing skills while working on their personal development. 100% recommendation from me!

I had the most wonderful weekend and came home feeling rejuvenated both physically and mentally. It was magical to share the experience with people I didn't know. I will recommend your concept to everyone I know without hesitation! You are a warm, present, and attentive person. Thank you for providing us with the opportunity to understand ourselves and nature through new insights and new communities. I will definitely come again!"

Fantastic concept and retreat in Klitmøller. Competent surf instructors, great facilities, and Mie's ability to create space for reflection made it an experience I would recommend to everyone!

An experience I wouldn’t want to miss. I will definitely revisit Mie and her fantastic concept at another Socean Retreat when it fits into my schedule. During this May retreat, I gained a deeper understanding of myself and a value compass that makes so much sense to me that it’s now framed and displayed.
So, if you want to learn more about yourself, experience the lovely Vesterhav, learn to surf, and feel a sense of community with other participants—then you should head to Socean Retreat with an open mind and soak it all in.
