Since the beginning of Surf With Amigas history, we have been committed to a community involvement aspect of the retreats. About a year ago, we heard that the Nicaraguan government started a kickball league for women country-wide and the local girls hopped on the chance to get involved in athletics. In the past, women never had such opportunity to play any sport on a team, let alone in a country-wide league.
We began taking our groups of ladies to play against (or mixed up amongst) the local team. After a couple games, we were totally hooked, as the games were super fun, often times bringing on flashbacks to middle school kickball (or “soccer baseball”) matches. Lately, we have been playing against them every week that we have retreats. The girls have improved immensely and regularly squash any dreams we have of winning a game against them.
We are so stoked to support women empowerment through playing sports and love the interaction that happens when ladies on retreats play sports with local girls. The local team, the “Mariposas Sociales” (translation: the Social Butterflies) is now sponsored by Surf With Amigas and recently went to their inauguration game as an official team- with uniforms and all.
Come join us for a northern Nicaragua retreat for an opportunity to get involved in the kickball action!
For more information on how to support the Mariposas, please email [email protected]. Any donations of sports equipment, athletic wear, sports bras, etc are extremely useful and appreciated!

Christine is a yoga teacher at El Coco Loco that can be often be found sneaking some cute waves at the bay, on her hot pink funboard, in a Seea crop top and surf skirt. Originally from Canada, she comes from a fitness background and has picked up surfing in the last few years after a lifestyle change and move to Nicaragua. Check out this cute little video filmed in the yoga space at El Coco Loco. She writes,
“Whether you’ve put in hard work on the waves or at the office, our chest and shoulders can always use a good stretch. Here are my go-to stretches in a routine that easily travels to the beach or to your living room — filmed in fast-forward mode so you’ll get all 5 stretches in less than a minute!”
In addition to yoga and surfing, Chris has created a project called Vintage Love Manzano, where she works alongside local women in the remote Nicaraguan community surrounding El Coco Loco resort to create designs to be sold in the global marketplace. The goal is to create fresh and stylish designs to be used as a vehicle for social change and women empowerment… And the stuff is really cute!

Go Chris! You rip!
