“My surf lesson with Mark was so great! He taught me technique I’ve never learned and found his advice to be extremely helpful. His teaching style is patient, welcoming, effective and impactful. I’d highly recommend lessons from Mark!!” Alison Meyer 5/2/23
“Mark was an awesome down to earth instructor. He gave enough instructions, lots of water/practice time, and he was very insightful at giving each of us tips on exactly what we were doing wrong, how to improve, and also challenging us with what to look forward to learning/working on next!” Mern B, Oceanside 2/14/23
“Mark, thanks for making our first surf lessons great. Your instruction, patience, and professionalism made it a great experience for us, especially my anxious 11 year old. Your boards were great too (we rented boards the next day from a local shop and they didn’t work as well). We’ll look you up again next time we are in town. Thanks”, Limburgs: Parker, Eric, Skyelar

Going from Soft Tops to Short Boards
A sport where everyone can learn together and surf in the same place. Never know who is going to be the best.

Beginner surf boards have high volume to make paddling, riding and wave catching easier.

This course is what I teach on the dry land and in water instruction.
Foreword
Surfing is really fun. It’s one of the first things new students say. Getting propelled by a wave while riding on a surfboard is a very Nature connecting experience. It is akin to flying.
Most students say it is not as easy as it looks. This is also true. The techniques of surfing are easy to explain, but not as easy to execute in the water. People have much more respect for surfers after they try it the first time.
Surfing is very physical. Yet, most people can do it. Everyone from kids to seniors can surf. It is not like riding around in a car. There is paddling, dealing with waves, and, of course, riding the board to the beach.
Take the time to learn the techniques. Get in better physical shape if you are not there already. The results of learning to surf and being in better physical shape affect our quality of life, our gratitude, and our “stoke”. Buy the E-Book for $2.99 and the Paperback on Amazon for $6.95
Dry Land and In Water Demo Video
View the Dry Land and In Water Demo of my Surf Lessons. The most important part of the lessons is trying to execute what you learn on the Dry Land Lesson.
This is not easy and where the real coaching begins as we try to correct the mistakes you make before they become bad habis.
