Danielle Paskowitz is best recognized by California Horsetrader readers for her occasional appearance in show news coverage on the stock horse circuit — the most recent June 2 when trainer Bob Avila rode her Shiners Rojo to the Open Bridle Spectacular at the Gilkerson Memorial in Temecula. Her passion for horses might only be topped by her life’s work shared with her professional surfer husband, Izzy Paskowitz, with their “Surfer’s Healing” surf camp for kids with autism. The Paskowitzes’ inspiring story will be the focus of a nine-episode series called “The Swell Life” that premieres at noon Saturday, Aug. 6, on the the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN).
The series chronicles a summer with the Paskowitz family as they raise their three children and run “Surfer’s Healing.” The couple support one other through major tests of patience as they care for their 18-year-old autistic son and inspiration for the camp, Isaiah, as well as their two other children, Ella and Elijah — all while running their legendary surf camp
In the first hour-long episode, the beginning of the summer is hectic for Izzy and Danielle: Ella plans to move in with her boyfriend, Isaiah wins an award, and they scramble to open their family’s Surf Camp and Surfers Healing for kids with autism.
