Surfing, paired with therapeutic practices, unlocks a flow state. Each wave an invitation to face fear, build courage, and discover strength.

RECONNECT WITH BODY, SOUL & SPIRIT

Flow House Creative is where healing, connection, and creativity flow together. Our surf retreats invite women to reconnect with themselves, find balance, and rediscover their strength through community, self-awareness, and the power of the ocean. Each experience blends evidence-based mental health practices with surf therapy to create a safe space for growth and transformation.

Beyond the retreats, Flow House Creative captures stories of empowerment through photography, from surf branding and retreats to portraits and in-water sessions. With honesty, authenticity, and courage at the heart of everything we do, Flow House is here to help you feel seen, supported, and inspired to live life in your flow.

ABOUT FLOW HOUSE

Flow House was created as a heartfelt blend of the things that bring its founder Tammy love, joy, and healing. It’s a safe, peer-led retreat designed for women seeking an alternative to traditional therapy, particularly those with traumatic pasts who are ready to reconnect with themselves and create change. Drawing on her background as an Army Nurse, over a decade of personal therapy, and lived experience with complex PTSD, Tammy has created a nurturing space that combines evidence-based mental health practices with the transformative power of surf therapy.

Flow House is where healing meets community. The retreats offer women the chance to connect, share lived experiences, and rediscover strength through movement, mindfulness, and the ocean. Surfing becomes both a meditative practice and a way to re-regulate the nervous system. While open to women from all walks of life, Flow House holds a special focus on those with backgrounds in the military and emergency services. Ongoing 1:1 mentoring is also available for those who wish to continue their journey beyond the retreat.

WHO ARE OUR RETREATS FOR?

Flow House Retreats are designed for women who are ready to reconnect with themselves, rewrite their story, and find healing through community, self-discovery, and the ocean. Whether you’re navigating trauma, seeking empowerment, or simply craving more joy and balance in life, this is your space to begin again.

Flow House is for women who:

  • Have experienced trauma, anxiety, depression, or PTSD and are ready to explore new ways of healing, growth, and self-understanding outside traditional therapy.

  • Feel disconnected from themselves or others and want to rebuild confidence, improve relationships, and step out of cycles that no longer serve them.

  • Crave connection and community and are seeking a supportive group of women who value honesty, empowerment, and shared healing.

  • Want to embrace womanhood and adventure, whether through learning to surf, exploring creativity, or simply finding freedom and strength in the water.
