Surfing - Group Lesson - Waikiki, Oahu

Overview
Learn to surf on this 2-hour group lesson on Oahu.  Join a group of students and discover how to ride the waves like some of the Island's most famous celebrities with the help of a certified, professional instructor.  We have small student to instructor ratio of 1 instructor for every 3-4 students.  Waikiki Surf Lesson starts a 10 minute safety slide show inside our surf shop, followed by heading to the beach and practicing on the sand for another 10 minutes.  In our 20 year experience, we know that surfing is muscle memory, so when first timers master their surf stance then they tend to get up on their very first wave.

This surf school was great. I took a group of six guys to Oahu and two wanted to try surfing. They had an experience of a lifetime, and loved it. They chose to be with a small group and they got individual as well as group instruction. If anyone comments that they didn't have a good experience, any bet they felt they should be surfing like a pro during their first lesson. They have a great photographer and you can buy a decent CD with tons of photos after you check back at HQ. Money well spent, I say. I'd recommend Hans Hedemann Surf School to anyone. (I have, actually)

We signed up our two kids, ages 14 and 10, for the surf school TWICE in one week on our latest trip to Oahu. They absolutely loved it, and their instructors were very attentive and great human beings. We opted for the private lessons, and they were well worth the money. Parents--if you'd rather watch than surf, have the school pick your kids up then walk down to the beach where they surf. There's a nice jetty you can walk out on to watch or you can stay in the shade in the nearby park.

Had we read the reviews before we booked I would had been concerned, but thankfully our experience was a good one. We booked our 2 hour lessons on our last day, which is not the thing to do, try this early in your holiday then you can rent a board and give it a go on your own, we wished we did! We thought it was quite well organised and friendly, first we were given the dry run lesson as a group, then it was the practical lesson with one instructor for the two of us (Pete, good guy). We are both in our late 40's and fairly fit, we were surprised how physically demanding it was (but then we had just spent over two weeks of doing bugger all).Both of us managed to stand on the board several times which was captured by the photographer who was very good ($30 for the disk). The location was ideal for the beach and if you wanted to rent a board in future it was a perfect set up.
