“Patient, fun. Excellent lesson and time”Cass B., student
About StephenWith roots in the waves of North Carolina's Carolina Beach, Wrightsville, and the Outer Banks, my surfing journey has taken me around the globe. From the legendary breaks of Hawaii to the exotic shores of Bali, Brazil, and beyond, I've chased swells and explored coastlines in search of the perfect wave. For 6 years, I called San Diego home, riding every swell that graced its shores.
From the Persian Gulf to the Gulf of Mexico, from Italy to Indonesia, I've immersed myself in diverse surfing cultures and landscapes. Now, with a wealth of experience under my belt, I'm passionate about sharing the stoke with others. Whether you're a beginner learning to stand up or an experienced surfer looking to refine your technique, I'm here to guide you down the line and help you make the most of every wave. Let's hit the surf together and ride the waves of adventure!Go to profile98OutstandingTop rated

“Surfing has been on my bucket list for years, and at 60+ I finally decided to give it a shot. I had my first lesson with Rhavie and had an absolute blast. By the end of that first lesson, I was already catching waves on my belly and even riding them on my knees! On my second lesson, Rhavie helped me put it all together, and I finally stood up and rode my first wave. What an incredible feeling! Rhavie was patient, encouraging, and made learning something completely new at my age feel achievable. I checked surfing off my bucket list and now I’m hooked! 🤙🌊”Kai M., student · shared by Rhavie
