SURF LESSONS LEVELS

TAILORED. Our surf lessons are structured, tailored to individual needs with personal training goals and support of video analysis:

  • beginners (learn how to surf, practice surfing whitewater waves)
  • intermediates (surf small waves, learn basic maneuvers)
  • advanced surfers (surf big waves, train more radical maneuvers)

Surf lessons are specifically designed to teach you to surf at your own pace in a relaxed environment to build further self-confidence so you can continue in the sport of surfing and feel confident in the water.

SURF LESSONS 4 KIDS

SAFE & FUN. Kids surf lessons are adapted to the needs of the little ones. Its about being safe, having fun in the water and learn how to surf. Depending on the age and surf conditions, our especially kids friendly and patient surf instructors usually take only take up to 2 kids into the water and have a close eye on each one of them. Surf lessons for kids usually are designed to alternate between beach and water exercise / games in order not to loose the kids attention and let them learn how to surf in their own pace and built up confidence playing with the waves and having fun.

FAST PROGRESS

YOU SURF. We can almost guarantee, that at the end of one week of surf course, you will be able to take-off and surf a whitewater (broken), even a small green (unbroken) wave, standing up like a real surfer. Also intermediate and advanced surfers will most likely achieve what they came for.  Years of experience in teaching, elaborated teaching techniques, individual goal setting and instant feedback, as well as video analysis will ensure you will have the best possible learning success in achieving your individual goals. Especially video analysis has proven to be highly effective, because posture-, motion-or timing-flaws as seen from the spectators view are 5x easier to correct for the student.

Every participant wears a wetsuit and a lycra that identifies the participant belonging to the Karma Surf School group. If you have your own surfing gear, feel free to bring it (from March to October a 3×2 mm thick wetsuit is convenient and a 4x3mm is snuggling cozy).
