After seeing a need for more adventure, empowerment, and presence for a certain age group, we decided to lead surf retreats for older women.
Thus, Modern Sage was born. A sage is a grounded, wise guide, typically an elder, who leads through wisdom, authenticity, and experience.
Surfing is a living metaphor for flow, resilience, and surrender.
It invites full presence — a surfer attuned to the rhythm of the waves, the body, and the moment. Surfing channels energy and emotion through movement, fostering a deep connection with nature and the self.
Through patience and practice, surfing becomes a powerful act of balance, reflection, and flow.
We are proud to collaborate with Ageless Adventures in our next retreat.
Modern Sage.

Expressive Journaling Groups
As Dr. Gabor Maté says, “It’s not what’s wrong with you, it’s what happened to you.”
Journaling for expression, creativity and even grief is a powerful tool to reveal part of ourselves we have not been seeing. Expressive journaling is not to be kept but to vent as a practice to reduce the reservoir of feelings from childhood, from current stressors, and even as a byproduct of our personalities.
These take place on location in Ojai, California and are offered for all adults.
Dates, location, and cost to be announced.
