What skills will I gain from the course?
You'll learn how to safely and professionally host a sauna shower, including the use of essential oils, towel techniques and how to create a unique shower experience. After the course, you will receive a certificate as proof of your new knowledge.
Can I use my certificate professionally?
Yes! The certificate documents your skills and can be an advantage if you want to work as a shower master in wellness centres, swimming pools or saunas.
What should I bring?
You need to bring two towels, swimwear, flip-flops, street clothes (shorts and t-shirt/running shirt), a water bottle and either a smartphone, tablet or notepad.
Can I get a refund if I am prevented from travelling?
Yes, if you cancel at least one month before the course starts, you will receive a full refund. If you cancel between 30 and 14 days before the start of the course, 50% of the amount will be refunded. If you cancel later than 14 days before, we cannot refund the course price.

No need to worry! The course is organised to ensure you have a safe experience. You'll receive guidance along the way and everyone receives constructive feedback.

Yes! You may want to read about saunas, essential oils and thermotherapy. If you have the opportunity, you can also participate in a saunagus as a guest to get a feel for the experience.
Do I need to be in good physical shape?
No, but since you'll be in a warm environment and moving around with the towel, it's an advantage to be used to heat. Remember to drink plenty of water.

The instructors were really skilful and attentive. They were good at spotting if someone was unsure and provided relevant technique tips or a helping hand if you needed it. This created a safe and comfortable atmosphere on the water. We also appreciated that they took photos along the way, so we have good memories of the day.
After the activities, we cosy up in front of your premises with a beer/soda and talked about the day's experiences. Everyone said it had been a super fun and cosy afternoon, and it seemed like everyone had a great time - regardless of experience.
Thank you so much for a successful experience - we will gladly recommend SURF Agency to others and will gladly return another time!
Very good bathing conditions and catering during your stay.

Thank you for the 2 lovely employees who were with us on the water, they had planned the day just the way we wanted it. π
It was a great experience and the staff were very experienced. The short course was enough to get started.
It was really good to sail along Risskov and relax a bit. However, we both felt some new muscles in our arms when we got home.
Highly recommended
