The expert's opinion
Your instructor adapts each session to the level of each participant in order to guarantee personalized progress, whatever your level, from beginner to experienced surfer.
- Beginners discover the fundamentals of surfing: understanding conditions and reading the ocean, safety rules, board positioning, paddling techniques, riding through whitewater, and the first sensations of gliding. The goal is to gain confidence and acquire essential skills in a safe environment.
- Intermediate surfers work on refining their technique: improving paddling and take-off, positioning in the line-up, reading sets, wave selection, and priority management. They also cover basic maneuvers (bottom turn, angle, trajectory control) to improve fluidity and independence.
- Advanced/confirmed levels focus on developing style and performance: careful reading of conditions, strategic wave selection, optimized trajectories, and linking more technical maneuvers. Sessions allow participants to refine their technique, improve speed, and work on a more committed and precise surfing style.
Each session is adjusted according to the conditions of the day and the level of each individual, with personalized advice to maximize progress.
