PRIVATE
SURF LESSONS and PACKAGES
Get a thorough and personalized
introduction to surfing with your own instructor in our
Private lessons. There is no more effective
way to learn to surf than by having the undivided attention
of a professional instructor to guide you through the pitfalls
and get you up and riding your own waves. You're pretty
much guaranteed to get up on your first lesson. Or, for
a more thorough introduction to surfing, our Private
Surf Lesson Packages might be more suited to your
needs. In successive lessons, our students learn how to
turn, how to read and select waves, techniques to paddle
out through the break, how to best maneuver the board, timing,
ettiquite, tides and other factors affecting wave quality,
and more. In general, most people get a solid basic intro
in a 3 lesson pakage, and are able to consistently catch
waves and stand on their own. In a 5 lesson package, most
are able to turn fairly consistently after catching a wave.
After a 7 lesson package, many are able to identify a rideable
open-face wave, and have moderate success at maneuvering
themselves into position to catch it. Let us help you take
your surfing to the next level!
We book the surf lessons
to fit your schedule, and all equipment is provided. Lessons
are provided in all locations. Surf lessons are 1 hour and
45 minutes long and include all the equipment.

PROGRESSIVE GROUP SURF CLASSES (ages 13 and up - open enrollment)
Our Progressive Group Classes provide ongoing instruction
for both beginners and more advanced students. Provided
there are enough registrants, lessons are broken into more
and less experienced surfers so that the instruction can
be tailored to the student's skill level. We teach beginning
surfing every week, while taking more advanced students'
skills to the next level. Classes are small - with a maximum
ratio of up to 5:1. Surf lessons
are 1 hour and 45 minutes long and include all the equipment.
Call or email for availability. All are welcome -
come join the fun! If you have your own corporate or
private group and would like to set up a private event,

Cost: $75 per class. Packages of 4 or more classes
are $70 per.

STAND
UP PADDLE BOARD LESSONS (SUP)
If you'd like to take a mellow cruise down the coast on
a stand up paddle board, maybe trail a pod of dolphins for
a while and catch a few waves along the way, then try a
Stand Up Paddle Board Lesson with us! Stand Up Paddle Surfing
(SUP) has its origins in Hawaii, is more equipment intensive
but more mellow than conventional surfing. It is also a
great core workout. Our stand up paddle boards are very
stable and great to learn on. All the equipment is included
in the lesson - stand up paddle surfboard, wetsuit and stand
up paddle. In your first stand up paddle lesson, you can
expect to get an orientation on shore covering SUP basics:
how to get up, where to position yourself on the board,
proper paddle technique, turning, and how to paddle past
the break. In subsequent lessons, depending on your skill
level, we cover more advanced maneuvers including actually
catching waves on a stand up paddle board!
