We believe in setting you off right in learning your new passion. Our philosophy is that we teach all the necessary safety skills and create a solid basis for you to continue your journey. After our full beginner course, you should be safe and ready to continue learning by yourself or with an assistant watching you.
We don't believe in cheap thrills. Getting you on the board as fast as possible is not our goal. Our objective is to assist you in your progression so the learning curve will be fun and challenging at the same time. Making sure you will be enjoying the sport for many years to come!
During the main season (May - Sep), we teach 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon. For full beginners we suggest doing the 3 day (12hrs) beginner course. People with previous experience or fast learners might be able to book a shorter course.
There are no hard and fast rules for how much or how little of the beginner course you will get through, our main objective is that after a course you are capable of going out by yourself safely and independently.
You can pre-book lessons through our inquiry form. We only pre-book the courses displayed in the form and group lessons can only be pre-booked by two people. If you want to book private lessons for several people, make sure to add each course separately to your booking.
