Jared
John was very knowledgeable and helped explain the fundamentals. I have much more confidence in the ocean now. He also takes his time with the lessons. Would recommend him to everyone.
Michael
I took a lesson with John ,who’s friendly, professional and a great teacher. I’ve gotten a couple of surf lessons before and this has been the best so far. I was never taught surf etiquette.I highly recommend.
Maddy
John was such an amazing instructor! I took the 12:30pm Sunday beginner class and learned so much about safety, surfing, and had so much fun! He was also super supportive and aware.
Sarah
Easy, fun, and made me feel relaxed the whole time. John helped me caught waves!!
Chloe
The surf teacher John was friendly & gave me very concrete feedback. I made so much progress that day! One of my best surf lessons ever! :)
