The sailing certification practical course is a necessary step for anyone wishing to gain hands-on experience after obtaining their nautical qualification. This intensive practical training focuses on essential sailing skills that go beyond basic safety and navigation, providing the knowledge and confidence required to handle a sailing vessel effectively. Unlike other practical courses tied to individual qualifications, this training only needs to be completed once and is valid across multiple certifications, making it a valuable and efficient investment for aspiring sailors. The course is conducted at the BDA Sailing School in Port Olimpic of Barcelona, offering a supportive and professional learning environment throughout the year. Participants will benefit from structured training that ensures a comprehensive understanding of sailing techniques, navigation, and vessel handling. Using the school vessels, trainees can put theory into practice in real conditions under the guidance of experienced instructors. By completing this course, sailors are well-prepared to safely enjoy the open sea while applying their skills across various boating qualifications.

I've participated in other women's gatherings and always felt wonderful, but this one surpassed all the previous ones without a doubt. In short, I felt connected and cared for; it was like "coming home," as well as feeling protected and respected. A large part of this feeling is due to the professionalism and care with which Elena and Yolanda led and guided this activity throughout the weekend. From the beginning, they help you relax, disconnect from the inertia of daily stress, and put your body and mind at the disposal of this adventure. Contact with the sea, its sounds and silences, the gentle rocking of the boat, letting yourself be rocked by it, provide the perfect setting for reconnecting and inhabiting oneself. The cabins are very comfortable, and there are plenty of moments to relax or enjoy the boat as you wish. They shower you with attention and pampering, the food is spectacular, and they take into account preferences and/or intolerances. Of course, I want to highlight the sisterhood and the love I receive from my classmates, as a bond is created with them that makes you feel so good. I was more than satisfied with the experience and I definitely plan to do it again. I would recommend it to my mother, who is the woman I love most in this world. From then on, I would recommend it to all the other goddesses in the Universe. They all deserve something like this.
A MAGICAL experience, a yoga retreat on a sailboat shared with wonderful women. Delicious food, relaxation, letting yourself be lulled by the sea, feeling accompanied and cared for, laughter, reconnecting with your body, and caressing your soul. All of this is what awaits you if you dare. I highly recommend it to all women who want to treat themselves and their bodies. Because we are Goddesses and we deserve the best ;-)
One of the best experiences I've ever had in my life. Being aboard a sailboat with women, guided by Elena García Navarro (a psychologist and yoga teacher) and Yolanda (a captain and an excellent human being), left an indelible mark on my body, mind, and soul. Enjoying the sunrises and sunsets, delving into the depths of our own history and feeling in a safe space (in every way), is something I highly recommend. Without a doubt, it's well worth the effort to embark with these women on an unforgettable journey, whose purpose is to achieve a balanced union of mind, body, and spirit, thus learning to navigate the tides of life. I'm grateful for everything I've experienced. I hope to repeat it again soon.
In a word, I would describe that feeling, that trip, as FREEDOM. I hadn't sailed before, and I think it's an experience worth experiencing. I was hoping to disconnect from the external madness that surrounded us at the time, which we've been experiencing since March 2020. I was also hoping to find time for myself. And what did I find that I hadn't expected? Well, I found a little bit of myself in each of the women who were there at that moment, who coincided with me in that space and time, on that journey. It surprised me and filled me greatly. I would recommend it to any woman who feels alone, who believes she's alone in the world, that the things that happen to her only happen to her, so that she can realize that's not the case... and I would also recommend it to any woman who needs time to find herself, to recognize herself, to know who she is. I think that, although it was a short trip, a weekend, it was a world apart from everyday life and a world in which one can find oneself.
The sailing experience was wonderful and unforgettable. I had never sailed before, but I had my resistance because I get seasick. I get seasick quite a bit, but thanks to the Biodramina and Yolanda's advice, I was able to overcome my fear of sailing. The weekend was truly divine, without seasickness. I was hoping to meet up with my sister because it was the first time we decided to take a trip together, and it was an unforgettable experience for both of us. I was hoping for a different kind of weekend because I had never sailed before, and I found… well, I found myself with a fantastic nightlife on my 13th birthday. You prepared a beautiful party for me that I'll never forget. I met wonderful women, I found myself rocked by the sea, I found a breathtaking piece of the night sky. I found beautiful music, delicious, supernatural food. I found myself snorkeling and seeing little fish. I found myself with so many women's hearts, and together we made it feel like a special weekend. I would recommend it to all women who want to give themselves a gift to rest, to enjoy, to simply say, "I'm here for whatever comes," and I would tell them why they deserve it, and they deserve the best of the best. A hug.
