Note:
1) Water safety and surfing etiquette form a part of every session
as do warm ups and stretching exercises.
2) It is not necessary to do all classes. Some participants may
already have basic skills, and some participants progress at
a faster rate than others.
3) The program is designed so that participants can take the
learnings from each class and practice on their own before taking
the next class.
4) For those wishing to develop longboard surfing, additional
techniques such as nose-riding, drop-knee turns with an emphasis
on style are also introduced.
