How You Can Improve Your Surfing
WITH OUR SURF SCHOOLS' SURF COACHING METHOD
As an example, let’s say you want to learn how to catch unbroken waves but the concept seems hard to grasp. Our coaching method combines practical movements, theoretical classes, video analysis and direct feedback to help you not only learn to catch waves, but understand them. We break down difficult concepts into bite size chunks which makes learning to surf independently a simple task.
Step 1
The first step in the Independent Surfer coaching method, is for you to fill out our surf ability questionnaire. This gives us a clear picture of your surf ability, so we know where to start.
Your Question...
How Do I Catch
Unbroken Waves?
Step 2
Once we have a clear idea of your experience, our surf school can get to work on a personalized surf coaching program that creates a clear road map for surf progress. Learning to catch waves is much more than just sitting in the line up and attempting to read the ocean.
Our course syllabus has a variety of different theory classes that will help you understand how waves are created, the variables that affect them, how they break and how to position yourself correctly, relative to a wave.

Understand Them
