Intro to Surfing - Beginners White Wash ONLY

Strong focus on body mechanics and mindset with the goal in athleticism and leveling up. THIS IS NOT A TOURISTY EXPERIENCE, this is high performance coaching, you will be challenged to channel your inner athlete.

Have you ever wanted to get into surfing but just have been too intimidated? Or, have you been surfing for some time but still struggling with getting some nice rides and consistency in your popups? Do you want to surf out the back with all the other surfers but your skills are not up to par yet?

This is the perfect coaching session for you. You can sign up for this session as many times it takes until you reach the foundational skills and ocean knowledge to start heading to the lineup (outside area/green waves) by yourself

Where

Coaching takes place anywhere between La Jolla Shores and Ocean Beach. A message with the location will be sent the day before the session to the people who have secured their spot

Recommended Skill Level

- Can't get a long ride all the way in
