Get a Good Nights Rest: Adequate sleep ensures optimal physical and mental readiness, enhancing your ability to focus and learn during your lesson.
Eat a Healthy Breakfast: A nutritious breakfast provides the energy and stamina needed for the physical demands of surfing and playing in the waves.
Sun Protection: The wetsuit and rashguard will help prevent a sunburn, but exposed skin on your face, ears, neck and feet will need some good sunscreen to shield your skin from the harmful UV rays.
Stay Hydrated: Proper hydration is essential for maintaining overall well-being and preventing fatigue, allowing you to stay alert and responsive throughout the lesson.
Show Up Early: Arrive early to your lesson, and let us take care of everything else. Traffic and parking can be challenging in Southern California beach communities, so save yourself the frustration and leave early.
Warm Up: Engaging in a thorough warm-up routine prepares your muscles and joints which helps reduce the risk of injury and enhances your ability to ride some waves.
Attitude and Effort: Only you can control this. Everyone learns new skills at their own pace, and that’s ok. Be patient with yourself, trust the process, and most of all, have fun!
