Overview

What sets my surfing lessons apart is the personalized, one-on-one attention you'll receive. Unlike group lessons, my private sessions are tailored entirely to your group. There are no other participants—just your group and your instructor, allowing for a customized experience that focuses on your specific skill level, goals, and pace.

Whether your group are complete beginners or looking to refining techniques, the lesson is designed around your groups needs, ensuring faster progress and a more enjoyable time in the water. It's all about maximizing your groups learning and comfort in a way that suits you best.

What's Included

  • All equipment will be provided including: surfboard, surf leash and rash guard
  • Please wear your swimsuit and reef safe sun screen. Rashguards help to protect arms & shoulders.
