He has always felt at home in the deep blue. Priyal launched his first surf school in 2012 and his Surf & Yoga camp in 2014 with passion and love.

A medical doctor with expertise in health systems, he’s also a passionate yoga and meditation teacher, weaving ancient philosophies into his approach.
When he’s not catching waves, James enjoys whipping up delicious meals, dancing with joy, and contemplating the soulful connection between island life and our place in the world.
Eric
Co-Founder
While Eric is relatively new to yoga, he has quickly fallen in love with its practice.
In what was supposed to be a short vacation in Siargao, he found himself embracing the slow island life and the peace it brings.
He now calls Siargao his home.
With his love for food and sharing, he is focused on developing nourishing meals that will complement the activities for the day.
When not feeding the people around him, he likes to feed his cats
