What to expect
You'll meet your instructor at the chosen beach and spend time on dry land learning technique and ocean awareness before paddling out. With just four or five others in your group, the instructor watches closely as you position yourself on the board, time the waves, and pop up. Expect to spend most of the two hours in the water. You'll likely catch several rideable waves by the end, and the emphasis is on having fun and building confidence rather than perfecting form. The instructors are relaxed and encouraging, and you'll probably end up swapping stories with your fellow learners.
