## Rhythm pages (moment intros)
### Before you surf

- **Public URL:** https://www.surfatelier.com/peniche/before-surf
- **Subtitle:** Rhythm, fuel, and showing up ready
- **Intro:** The session starts before the zip goes up—sleep, a real breakfast, and a realistic arrival time keep your attention on the coach and the sets, not on rushing or low blood sugar.

**Highlights**
- Arrive 10–15 minutes early to change without stealing water time.
- Hydrate and eat something you already trust; avoid brand-new foods on lesson day.
- Check the school’s message for last-minute spot changes when the Atlantic shifts.

### After you surf

- **Public URL:** https://www.surfatelier.com/peniche/after-surf
- **Subtitle:** Recovery, food, and the rest of the coast
- **Intro:** Let the nervous system land: warmth, calories, and light movement help you sleep well and show up sharp tomorrow—especially if you’re stacking multiple days.

**Highlights**
- Rinse gear, dry the wetsuit inside-out, and air the booties—salt multiplies odour fast.
- Prioritise protein and carbs; the Atlantic appetite is real.
- Save one low-key hour for a viewpoint or slow walk—Peniche rewards unhurried eyes.
