For this three hour group surf, beginner and intermediate surfers will do a brief tutorial and warm up on the sand before heading into the water. Next, the group is broken up and assigned to various instructors with a guaranteed 4:1 ratio however we are often at 3:1. As long as weather and surf conditions cooperate, we will take a short break approximately half way through the class. If for any reason that is not possible and we need to spend time on the sand, we then use it as a way to practice exercise drills that can help with strength and balance while surfing, or even ‘games’ that help students get more comfortable in the ocean.
The Teen Group Surf class occurs at the same time as the Kid Group Surf Class. We will break the Teens and Kids into separate groups in the ocean, however, they may intertwine in the ocean because of the nature of surfing being in an open environment and depending on the conditions, we may have only a small surfing area. Please note: If instructors feel it is necessary to combine the Kid/Teen Group Surf Class for safety or for any reason, they have the ability to do so.
