Group Surf Lessons

Our group surf lessons are designed to help you no matter what your level is already. From the complete novice and those who have already had a few lessons we will develop your skills further. For the advancing surfer we may need to make a few adjustments to which lesson you join but be prepared to be pushed towards your goals.

For the novice we help you through all the very basic skills of safety, holding your board, dealing with waves, paddling, catching waves and of course standing up. Once you have mastered these skills our coaches will continue to guide your skills towards, trimming/turning and catching unbroken waves.

For the more advancing surfer we can work on such skills as wave selection, reading water movement, using rips, generating speed on the wave, carving turns, duckdiving and more.

All equipment is supplied so just bring your swimmers and a towel.

Soul Surfing’s Before and After School Program Policy

Safety Procedures

  • Soul Surfing coaches will adhere to the safety guidelines set out by ASI (Academy of surfing instructors).
  • Each accredited coach is qualified with surf rescue and first aid certificates.
  • Each lesson will be conducted with no more than 6 students / coach. Only in very rare circumstances (no other coach available and extremely safe surf conditions) will we utilise our limit of 8 students / coach.
  • The after school program will be scheduled to run every day that it is programed. This means that even if the surf conditions are unsuitable we will still run our program but with a change in activity.
  • We will not surf if our coaches in charge deem conditions to be unsafe. This can be for a number of reasons being large powerful surf, shallow waters with difficult conditions and electrical storms. Please note that electrical storms are common in Term 4 but do pass very quickly in most cases and surfing will be possible during the lesson period. Please do not panic about your child’s safety. We will keep them out of harms way.
  • Emergency assembly point will be at the Soul Surfing trailer.
  • There will be a mobile phone available in the trailer at all times for anyone to use in an emergency.

General Responsibilities

  • Full payments are to be made within the first 3 weeks of term. Payments made after this will incur a $50 late payment fee. Please communicate with us immediately if any problems arise with this.
  • Make up lessons can be made available if adequate notice is given. Please notify us ASAP if your child will be absent on any day. Any notification after 10am on the day will void your make up.
  • Please communicate any changes regarding early pick ups and/or if a friend or relative will do the pick up.

Rules for the Kids

  • Please remain seated with seat belts on when in the bus. Do not change seats during your trip.
  • Please respect the role of the bus driver and keep your voice levels at a moderate volume.
  • Listen and respect all directives given to you by any coach or bus driver.
  • Please remove all of your school gear from the bus when you arrive at the beach. Security of laptops is exempt from this.
  • Every time you need to visit the bathroom or need to go out of sight from your coaches you will need to be assigned a ‘Buddy’. Do not go on your own.
  • You must notify a coach each and every time you plan to leave the sight of your coaches.
  • Any policy that your school has in relation to the treatment of other children also applies here. Play, have fun and be kind to others. Bullying will not be tolerated
