Here is just some of what I will teach you in one or two hours. All
gear is included surfboard and wetsuit. Essentially, you will
get
the same surf
instruction I taught at
the college level. Surfing is like riding energy from the
sun. It
is the only sport I can do for decades and not get bored. I
look
forward to teaching you and your family/friends surfing.
20 years experience. Like
the captain of a
ship, when it comes to the ocean experience counts.
College level surf coach
SMC. Feel
confident you are getting the best possible surf
instruction available.
Learn what size surfboard
is best for you.
This is probably the most important choice in making surfing work for
you.
Learn where and when to
surf. Some spots
are good in the summer and others in the winter.
How tides effect wave
shapes. Some spots
only break on low tide and others on high tide.
How to paddle for the
wave and where to
paddle from. Timing takes time to learn. I show you what to look for.
Which way to go on the
wave. You don't
want to go the wrong way and have a wipe out.
What wetsuit is best for
you. Wetsuits
have
come a long way since the 60's. The proper one will be the warmest and
most
flexible.
How to paddle out thru
waves. So you can
get out to where the waves break best.
How to put the brakes on
your surfboard.
Needed for safety.
How to pop on the
surfboard. This is
practiced on shore first.
Surfing
rules and etiquette.
A must for every surfer so you don't crash into some other
surfer.
One hour of free
surfing with
each lesson. You get to use the gear for one hour after the formal surf
lesson is over.
Learn
how to ride the wave
of your life with the most experienced, permited and insured
surf
instructor in Los Angeles.

Thanks.

I
am
from New Orleans and was
recently in LA on Business trip. Matt worked with my schedule
and gave me the opportunity to take a lesson. I learned more
in one day than the 2 years I have spent surfing on my own. I
surf the Gulf Coast and I have been able to take back with me valuable
experience I might not have been able to
obtain. I recommend anyone experienced or not to
take a lesson with Matt!
Hi Matt,
I just wanted to say thank you for my surfing lessons. I really
appreciate your willingness to teach me yourself. I feel really safe
and comfortable with you and that is very helpful since I am
self-conscious due to my fitness level and body size. I am committed to
becoming a skilled surfer and look forward to learning more.
See you soon.
Warm Regards,
Stacey Moore

the best - until next time! Hannah

Hey
Matt, my name is Stephen, you and another girl taught me and my
girlfriend
Jennifer how to surf back in May at Santa Monica. I just wanted to tell
you how stoked I am to have learned to surf. I have gone out almost
everyday
since that day, (even when the surf is not good) just to be on the my
surfboard.
Thanks again, surfing has definitely changed my life. Stephen
