Skating and telling people about jesus

Skateboarding is more than a sport- it's a community, a culture, and an incredible opportunity to build authentic relationships. The Skate Elective is designed for those who want to share the love of Jesus by simply showing up, skating alongside others, and living out the Gospel through everyday life. As you grow deeper in your relationship with God, you'll discover how genuine friendships can become powerful opportunities to bring hope and point people toward Christ.

Throughout the school, you'll have opportunities to engage with the local skate community, build lasting friendships, and learn how consistency, encouragement, and intentional conversations can have an eternal impact. You'll discover that ministry doesn't always happen behind a pulpit—it often begins with a shared passion and a willingness to be present.

God is already at work in the skate community of Ensenada. Grab your board, join the adventure, and discover what He can do through a life that's fully available to Him.

What is a DTS?

YWAM San Diego/Baja’s Discipleship Training School is an accredited university-level course through the University of the Nations that is five months long.

You and your fellow students will participate in a three-month Campus Phase, including life-impacting teaching, daily devotionals, and powerful worship and prayer times with our YWAM community.

Our campuses are located in the beautiful Baja region of Mexico, just south of San Diego and the U.S. border.

After the 3-month Campus Phase, you are sent out on a 2-month international outreach trip equipped with newfound effective and powerful communication. In the Outreach Phase, you will use your God-given passion for surfing and skating to bring God’s unending love to new communities across the world.

A new DTS starts every fall, winter, and spring on either our San Antonio Del Mar or Ensenada campus. Both DTS are offered in English and Spanish, with locations only a few minutes walk from the beach. We can’t wait to see you there!

It's also the perfect place for a wide variety of awesome opportunities to be the hands and feet of Jesus.
