2h of Private Surf Lesson for Beginners in Santa Monica

2h of Private Surf Lesson for Beginners in Santa Monica

Overview

Most surf schools will get you to stand up your first time surfing. They all say so. And for your typical surf instructor, it’s easy to get someone on their feet. Here at our Surf School, we teach you how to actually read & ride a wave, starting from your very first lesson. Reading waves and knowing where to be are the most crucial aspects of surfing. Fostering the knowledge of the ocean is how you truly develop the ability to become a real surfer.

That being said, if surfing is something you want to kick off the bucket list or to do on vacation with friends or family, no one on our team has taught this sport for less than 5 years. Our focus is getting you to surf not just anywhere on the wave, but on the best, most fun part of the wave.

We are 100% the only surf school that custom-makes their boards (made in California) specifically for optimal learning as a beginner or intermediate. We have the warmest, cared for wetsuits, and we're all American Red Cross certified!

This was my “second” time taking a surf lesson - I did a yoga and surf session years ago. But I can’t emphasize enough how much I learned in my lesson with Damien! Not only did I get up several times, but he taught me which waves to take and how to pop up properly. His enthusiasm is contagious - I seriously had so much fun while feeling confident about learning to surf. Their prices are reasonable too. If you’re looking for a surf lesson, look no further than Badass Surf School.

The name is what caught my attention. The reviews were why I chose to have my first lesson here. My experience during my lesson is the reason why I will be coming back for more! Badass Surf School did not disappoint! Whether you are in it for the experience or if you are in it for the long haul, Jake's teaching philosophy and techniques are stellar! He is very thorough, and I found that everything he taught me proved important while surfing for real, which I did before the end of my first 2-hour session, without any prior experience, thanks to his guidance!
