Semi-private Surf Lesson (2-on-1)

Our semi-private "2-on-1" lessons are perfect for couples & siblings or whoever you want your surfer pal to be.

Compared to a group lesson, you'll have the undivided attention of your instructor for a full hour and 30 minutes. 

Whether you're a beginner or have some experience, we'll customize the lesson to suit your skill level and help you improve. Our surf lessons include:

1. Warm-up and Safety: The instructor will begin by introducing themselves and with some light stretches to warm up your body and help you get in the right mindset. They will go over important safety precautions, such as how to handle the surfboard and how to navigate the waves safely.
2. Basic Techniques: The instructor will teach the fundamental techniques of surfing, starting with how to paddle and catch waves. They will explain the proper body positioning and demonstrate how to pop up and stand on the surfboard.
3. Practice on Land: Before hitting the water, beginners will have the opportunity to practice the techniques on land. The instructor will guide them through the movements, ensuring they understand the correct form and body positioning.
4. In-Water Guidance: Once in the water, the instructor will provide one-on-one guidance to each beginner. They will help them position themselves correctly, time their paddling, and assist in catching waves. The instructor will be nearby, offering tips and encouragement throughout the process.
5. Feedback and Improvement: After each attempt, the instructor will provide feedback and suggestions for improvement. They will address any specific challenges the beginner may be facing and offer personalized advice to help them progress. The lesson will conclude with a recap of what was covered and a sense of accomplishment for the beginner's achievements.

Once you book your lesson, our surf instructor will get in touch with you to schedule a session that works best for you. You'll join us at Rockaway Beach, the only spot where surfing is allowed among all the beaches in NYC. It's where all the surfers gather, so you'll be in good company!

Surfboard and rashguard rental are included in the surf lessons. For winter surf lessons, wetsuit, boots and cloves can be rented for $25.

And here's the best part: For each surf lesson booked we provide a free surf class to kids in underserved communities.
