All classes begin with stretching and warm up, so students quickly gain an awareness of the importance to stretch prior to hitting the surf.
Following the warm up a deeply explained land lesson begins so students have a chance to focus entirely on the instructors explanation about technique and observe the demonstrations on land prior to getting in the water.
All movements and techniques demonstrated by the instructor are repeated by the students so they can fully understand how the positions and movements should feel. This simulation prepares the students for getting in the water and controlling the board in the waves, paddling out, getting through the surf and standing up.
Before entering the water the instructor will describe the wave conditions for that day and point out rip currents and sand bars, this ensures students become familiar with what is happening in the water at the location they will be completing the lesson.
In order to provide a better experience we separate groups by age or level of ability so students can develop their skills accordingly. Our student to instructor is 8:1 maximun but most times 4:1.
