Harriet has been a regular student to wind club and we couldn’t be more proud of her progress over the past year. She just returned from her first windsurf trip and kindly shared some of her journey with us:
“Hey, my name is Harriet and I’m a classical musician 👋 The first time I stepped onto a windsurf board was not until my mid 20s, and I fell in love immediately. After moving down to Bournemouth last summer I joined Water Babes and improved so much thanks to the amazing teaching of Amber & Charly, and loved being part of an amazing community of like-minded and inspiring women who enjoy watersports 💙
My confidence on the water grew and grew, and I booked my first windsurfing trip abroad to Fuerteventura (see pics)! I completed my intermediate training and now use a smaller board with footstraps and a harness, bigger sails, can beachstart, fast tack and gybe (and even managed my first carve gybe too!) and got to ride some baby waves! I love going super fast and my dream is to one day windsurf bigger waves 🌊 I’m about to do my Start Windsurf Instructor Course and the RYA Advanced Course this summer!🤍
I’m so grateful to Waterbabes for kickstarting my windsurfing journey and for giving me the confidence to just go for it”🤍
