These coaches teach at top ranked spots and have great lesson fulfillment & student reviews.
With over five years of experience teaching beginner and intermediate surfers, I bring a holistic and deeply personal approach to every lesson. My teaching is rooted in mindfulness, breathwork, and the belief that surfing is not just a sport—it’s a pathway to growth, presence, and self-discovery. I’m passionate about helping others find confidence in the water, connection with the ocean, and a deeper understanding of themselves through surfing. For me, the lessons we learn on the board mirror the challenges and triumphs of everyday life, and I’m honored to guide others on that journey.
"Jake was a great teacher! Very easy to understand material, and overall a great, safe vibe. Very patient and great messages. Doing this lesson was alot of fun and taught me many things I can take into my practice!
I’ve taught several people so far, I’ve surfed for over 20 years. I have a go with the flow kind style. I want to know what I am working with so I’m going to have the student practice there pop up on the beach. Check them on what they should work on and then advance.
