Surfing

Traditional Surf Class

 

At the beach and in the water. Not just your typical lesson with your teacher saying paddle, paddle, paddle. There will be some of that but also much more. If you have not surfed before we recommend you take our surf theory class first. If you have already started your journey on becoming a surfer you have come to the right place. We will work on the skills that you need to get better.  Video and photo analysis are available and highly recommended for the intermediate . We give a complete review of what went wrong and what went right in a post surf analysis and give you a breakdown of what you need to work on. Learning to surf is like learning to play a musical instrument and can take years to learn and a lifetime to master. But you can speed this process of up with a surf tutor. So please repeat as many times as you can. We prefer to look at this as surf mentoring please don't call it surf coaching. 

 

Surf Theory

 

When is the best time to surf? Is a question we constantly ask ourselves.  Or like many of us you have a limited amount of time and want to get the most out of your time. Learning how to read surf forecasts will get you in the right place at the right time to maximize your surfing experience. Learn where the waves come from and what conditions create them. What are the best local conditions to look for, and all of the elements that make up good waves. How the tides and different surf spots affect wave conditions. It’s all about the right place at the right time and we will show you how to get there anywhere in the world with this course. 

 

Paddling

 

Improved paddling will make you surf better, catch more waves, make surfing easier as well as more fun. In this course we will go over some skills that many people never figure out on their own. You will use less energy, go faster, and not get any injuries if you paddle correctly. Good paddling is the foundation for better surfing. 

 

Surf Breathwork and yoga

 

When the waves get bigger learning to control your breathing and keep calm becomes an important skill. We will learn at some different breathing techniques to help you while you prepare for surf and improve your physical state all around, as well as some usefull techniques while you are in the water.
