Instruction will vary based on each surfers ability and goals. Below are some examples of what we can offer:

A major focus will be on increasing students ocean knowledge, safety, and awareness, including how waves form, various weather conditions and how they affect waves, different wave types, timing waves, surfing etiquette and the unspoken rules of the water.

I just wanted to please have you pass on to Chris, whom you found to help my son Nick get prepared for the Middle School Surf PE tryouts. My son loved him both times. Please let him know that my son made the Surf PE Cuts! He is thrilled to be able to do this at MBMS next year. They had 78 tryout and took 40 kids…He really helped Nick!
