The Paddler
$160.00

Perfect for those who want a gentler introduction to surfing. This 2 hour lesson includes expanded beach instruction and 30-45 minutes of in-the-water instruction. We’ve run across many women whose children or partners surf and they want to understand the experience and support their loved ones but they are unsure about trying it for themselves. The goal of this lesson is to help you better understand surfing and gently introduce you to wave-riding. You will also receive a packet of information to help you remember what you’re learning so that you feel confident trying it again anytime.

Who should choose The Paddler? First-time surfers who have a few fears or hesitations about surfing and want a gentle introduction; people who have kids or partners who surf and want to know more about safety and the surf environment; my mom.
