Lena Siebertz, Cold Water Sirens, Northern Germany and Denmark

Dropping In to Power: Personal stories of the transformational power of surfing from women of all levels, all ages, all over.

Lena Siebertz, founder of Cold Water Sirens, not only braves near-freezing conditions, but relishes them. In temps as low as 37F/2.7C, Lena is forging a community of feminist surfers in Northern Germany and Denmark to transform surf culture beyond the old competitive paradigm, using cold water as part of the reset. Lena and I bonded over surfing head injuries earlier this year, sharing our progress as our stitches healed and trauma ebbed. We found the true meaning of community! Lena and her surf grrrl gang are creating something truly unique in their gatherings - including systemic coaching, cold water therapy, and even Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu! Starting surfing as an adult, Lena withstood early pummelings from the surf, her board, and heartless instructors. Her call to the ocean overpowered her fear, and galvanized her to support others in a non-competitive, feminist exploration of surf and community. Fueled by her background as an artist, producer of a techno festival, and generally totally cool chick, Cold Water Sirens is expanding the surf gathering experience and creating something totally fresh and resetting.
