What to expect

We start with a brief introduction on the beach, where the instructor explains ocean safety, wave awareness, and basic surfing etiquette. Students then practice key techniques on the sand, such as paddling and the “pop-up” (standing up on the board).

After the dry run, the group heads into the water—usually in waist- to chest-deep surf—where the instructor helps position each student and guides them into small, manageable waves. Most of the session is spent catching waves, improving balance, and building confidence, with the instructor offering hands-on feedback.

The lesson wraps up with a quick recap on the beach, where progress is discussed and tips are given for future improvement. The overall vibe is relaxed and encouraging, with a focus on fun, safety, and getting everyone up on a wave at least once.
