South African, Jacob Mellish, has made Edinburgh his home for the past seven years, swapping the warm African waves for the baltic North Sea.

Surfing since he could walk, he came up through the ranks of South African surfing and into the WSL QS competitions.

He now spends his time teaching yoga, breath work and mindfulness, all of which have benefited his surfing.

Recently, he set up a partnership, holistically coaching young, high performance surfers to improve their mindset and movement so they can achieve their ultimate surfing goal.
