This 90-minute lesson pairs you with one instructor for personalized attention on both land and in the water. You'll cover ocean safety and foundational technique on the beach before paddling out to practice in smaller groups. The intimate setting works well for couples, siblings, or parent-child teams wanting to share the learning curve together.

What to expect
You'll start on the sand where your instructor covers ocean conditions, safety fundamentals, and the mechanics of popping up and balance. Expect a straightforward breakdown of positioning, paddle technique, and how to read wave timing. Once in the water, the instructor stays close, helping you catch waves and refining your stance in real time. The pace is deliberate—you're there to build competence, not collect Instagram clips. Two people means you'll both get plenty of hands-on correction and won't be standing around watching others take turns.
