Surfing Techniques / "The Cock and Pop" / Ancient Soul Surfing Assoc.

 

Lets talk about the concept 

of the Ancient Soul Surfing Association for a minute because the concept is the crux of the issue. This concept is born out of a sense of retaining balance internally and externally. Body, Mind, Spirit. This could best be described as Surfing Yoga. Yoga is defined as “union.” Let’s add another element or art. The Martial arts. In all of these practices, surfing, yoga and the martial arts there are philosophies connected that enhance the ability to practice the art. Meditation and Yoga, energy and frequency, etc. Energy is called “Chi or Ki” in the Martial arts. The higher the frequency, as in consciousness, the more energy you have to play around with and project into whatever your practice or art is.

When you practice surfing, meditation, yoga, or the martial arts, it becomes apparent at some point that everything in the cosmos is connected. It’s a oneness, or unified field of energy. This energy is the prime mover of life, the primordial creative field. Once you realize this, then surfing becomes a sacred act of unification and oneness with the rhythms of the ocean and planet.

At this point Surfing is no longer just grabbing your surf stick and going out to “shred some waves.” Everything changes. Your attitude, your concept, your way of looking at the natural order of things. Your surfing changes dramatically for the better because now you are more in tune and more comfortable with the Goddess Ocean. You are in a intimate love affair with her.

Surfing can be a portal to the “Ancient” infinite, no question about it. We at Ancient Soul Surfing Association are here to teach you how to incorporate yoga into surfing, meditation into surfing, and the martial arts such as Tai Chi into surfing. But the core idea is to raise your awareness, consciousness, and enjoyment of your place in the natural order of life in general.
