"We booked this experience last minute (day before on a whim, and we couldn't have asked for it to be any better! David was absolutely fantastic and had both our kids (ages 5 and 9) comfortable on a surf board very quickly. They were both able to stand up and surf (not every time, but both at least once!) and just really had a blast trying it out. Communication and scheduling was quick and easy. I would absolutely recommend trying a lesson!

What do coaches say about teaching kids and youth?
Coach Parker
surfing coach
Working at summer camps as a water ski instructor and lifeguard, I have experience teaching children water sports. For kids, it is very important to choose equipment and surf conditions that are suitable not only for their age but their skill level and water competency. Just as important though, is making them feel secure and confident throughout the lesson. Therefore it is key that the parent or guardian work with me to tailor the lesson for their child(ren).
Coach Cj
surfing coach
Simple instructions are the best ones for all ages but especially kids. I keep high energy and enthusiasm and make the ocean an inviting environment for the kids! Those who are reluctant to get in the water may start their lesson off with me doing some simple body surfing in the white water or just spend time in the shallows so they can acclimate to the ocean.
