All Classes Meet at 322 Pacific Ave. Santa Cruz, Ca 95060 Between Downtown and the Municipal Wharf

Our goal at SCSS is to make sure you're having fun while we're teaching you how to ride waves with a focus on ocean safety, and surf etiquette. The surfing portion of all our lessons is taught in the water at Cowell's. This is one of the best spots in all of California for learning how to surf.

A beginning group class will start with instruction in the private garden at our nearby office location, and then move to the water.

In the first lesson you will learn about:
ïRules and etiquette
ïOcean safety and awareness
ïTypes of waves and different conditions
ïControlling your surfboard

Follow up classes
In follow-up lessons we work more on wave asessment, timing and form. These are important techniques that you need to learn about in order to ensure you will be able to catch waves safely on your own. As you continue to take lessons and progress we will teach you about specific surfing maneuvers such as the bottom turn, the cutback, cross-stepping and duck-diving.1q11
