How we Coach Surfing

Personalized Surf Coaching

The process of learning to surf can sometimes be frustrating and take quite a long time. Our specialty is to help beginners and intermediates get better, faster, in a safe environment. Because the better you get at surfing, the more fun you have!

“My surfing was pushed to another level and I gained every single day on and off the water in lessons with local surf instructors, through video one-on-one analysis and group theory”.

— Brittany Maddin, Calgary

Focus on Surf Progression​

Personalized Surf Training Program

Whether you want to learn how to stand up for the first time, understand how to generate speed, or perform a cutback, our passion is to help you achieve your goals quickly and efficiently! Before the trip, we’ll gather details about your experience level and what you want to focus on. From the moment you arrive, our surf coaches will be there to welcome you and start working with you on your personal progression.

Daily Personal Feedback

Video Analysis of your Surfing

Watching yourself surf on video is one of the most powerful tools for improving your surfing. Seeing your technique alongside clear feedback from an experienced coach makes it much easier to correct mistakes and progress faster. We film every surf session using professional camera gear, and your clips are organized in a personal folder on our iPads so you can review them anytime.

TOOLS FOR FUTURE PROGRESSION

Surf Coaching App for Ongoing Progression

Unique to our organization, you will receive a free Premium Barefoot Surf Tutorials account. Through this account, your coach will send you personalized technique tips, recommended articles and videos, guidance on what to focus on in the future, and maybe even a few inside jokes along the way!
