What to expect

A typical beginner lesson starts with wetsuit sizing, followed by walking out to the beach with boards while discussing safety. I work with more advanced students to really tailor the lesson the meet their needs, focusing on what they most want to improve.

I emphasize that the goals are to be safe, have fun, spend some time in mother nature, get a great work out, and learn what it takes to stand up on a wave.

You could ride every wave on your belly, and that would be a successful lesson. First timers and advanced students alike can allow it be a patience meditation, being patient with yourself, the ocean, and the whole situation.

When we go into the ocean, I am right there with the students guiding them into waves and pushing them if they want a bit of extra speed.

When we’re done, we always thank the ocean, and then head back to get rinsed off.

For more advanced students, we focus on aspects of surf that they would like to improve, or techniques that I notice in their surfing that we could work on, usually paddling out to the green waves for the entire lesson if that’s preferred. I encourage them to take waves, and then we analyze what they could do better or differently.
