  1. Little Chargers Surf Academy

    Comments Off on Little Chargers Surf Academy

    This group class is specifically designed for young surfers (ages 4-6) to get comfortable in the ocean, learn safety techniques, practice proper surf form and play on-sand activities all in a small group setting. This is a more of an intro to surfing as well as how to approach the ocean that will also incorporate as much surfing as possible! If for any reason the ocean is not suitable for the younger surfers, the program is still on and we will work on on-sand activities.

    Sign up for a full weekly session is required—each session will include a Monday/Wednesday/Friday 2.5 hour session and run during the same time as the Kid/Teen Group Surf class which varies weekly by the tide. See the schedule by week below to see the start/end time. If cancelled by Hammer Surf School due to inclement weather, the makeup for each week will be on the Tuesday or the Thursday at the same time. All other cancellation polices apply to this program. If you cannot attend any session, standard or makeup, no refunds or credits will be given.

    Space is limited! Currently offered in Seaside Park and Spring Lake only. Click sign up to register in the surfer(s)’ name. 

    Please email hello@hammersurfschool.com if you have questions/inquiries.

    Classes will resume in June 2024!

  8. Teen Group Surf

    Comments Off on Teen Group Surf

    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.
