Willie, Water, Waves, Wet, Wild, Wash-out... are just a few of the thoughts that come to mind when reminiscing about this life experience. I have always wanted to feel the freedom of allowing oneself to submit and submerge myself into the heartbeat of the ocean-its waves. My, now fiance'(...yes he proposed on the trip), scheduled us for a group surfing session. I was so excited, but had no clue what an amazing adventure I would experience. We sat quietly on the benches watching the freedom of bare feet surfers, the smell of sticky sunscreen that is a man's best friend in this sport. All of a sudden a bolt of human electricity walked barefoot through the front entrance. He asked our group's name and required the children to speak proudly and loudly as they greeted him. And then there was Peter. Peter was such a delightful participant in our groups adventure...got to love Peter (inside joke here...thanks for being such a great sport...oh yea Katie is a cool kid). We followed the barefoot Willie as he cackled off his jokes assisted with a laugh that made anything funny. The photographer captured artistic photos that were more than the typical action flick. He curated the art in each photo so our memories of our once in a lifetime moment would tell the story of a lifetime. Back to the amazing instruction Willie Provided...He arranged our boards so that we were all always being active. He managed all 6 boards with one hand. He had the abdominal strength of a kangaroo as he sent each one of our boards swiftly into the gut of the waves. We rode the waves like professionals because of the clear directives, support, and intentional practice. Willie was AMAZING to state the least. MAHALO THANK YOU VERY MUCH (the real Mr. Chow...another inside joke)

Thank you so much for this beautifully written review! Everything you've said about Willie is exactly why he is such a meaningful asset to our team... We look forward to that laugh every day! It takes so much attention, strength and knowledge for an instructor to successfully teach 6 students and we consider ourselves extremely lucky to have instructors with abilities beyond the norm. As for our photographer- we love hearing you were able to take these magical memories home with you! He has been taking photos with us for years and it sure shows in his work. A HUGE MAHALO to you for taking time out of your busy schedule to share such kind words with us!! We hope to see you again!
