About Jake

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 sportβ€”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.

What students say...

About Luke

Hey, I'm Luke! I grew up surfing Socal from Oside to Ventura, including Malibu recently, where I go to school at Pepperdine University. I specialize in taking advanced beginners and intermediate surfers to that next step. Going from whitewash to open faces, doing your first carves and snaps... whatever that next step in progression is, we'll get there together. I'll walk you through what you can specifically do and feel with your body to achieve your goals.
