What do surf lessons include?

Surf lessons involve teaching you the fundamentals, from basic concepts to advanced techniques. This is perfect whether you’re looking to upgrade your fitness regimen or find adventurous recreational activities. Since surfing is a water sport, you can also enhance your swimming skills by hiring a swimming instructor to help you gain more confidence in the water. When you’re ready, feel free to use Airtasker to find surf lessons near you! Here are a few things you can expect when booking a surf instructor:

Surf lessons for kids

If your child seems interested in surfing, enrol them in surf lessons! It can give your child the confidence not only to stand on a surfboard but to handle themselves more confidently while riding the waves. Your instructor can teach your child safety rules, surf etiquette, and other techniques such as entering the water correctly, paddling and positioning on top of the surfboard, and getting through a wave. You can skip worrying as instructors can adapt the lessons to your child’s age and skill level.

Surf lessons for beginners

If you’re an adult who wants to learn how to surf, you can book beginner surf lessons near you! Your instructor can teach you how to face your first wave, get off your board safely, and paddle correctly. Other topics can include safety precautions, from properly dismounting your board to going over and under the waves.

If you’re taking up surfing because you want to stay active and improve your physique, you can take your fitness journey to the next level by hiring a personal trainer on Airtasker!

Intermediate surf lessons

If you’ve already mastered the basics of surfing and want to take your skills up a notch, you can book intermediate surf lessons to polish the fundamentals you’ve learned. As an intermediate surfer, your instructor can teach you to surf on the main surf break further out to sea. You can also learn how to walk up and down the board while you’re surfing, do bottom turns and other crucial manoeuvres, maximise paddle efficiency, make sections, and build up speed.

Advanced surf lessons

Advanced surf lessons can help push your surfing skills further! Your instructor can help you gain the confidence to ride bigger waves. You may also learn advanced foot placement to do tricks and develop your own surfing style. If you’re aiming to surf competitively, you can also get a private coach to teach you specific riding strategies and techniques.

I’ve just got back from learning to surf on some pretty calm waves in Sri Lanka. Really want to continue now that I’m back in Australia but a bit scared of the waves and not super knowledgeable of surf etiquette. Looking for someone to give me a few (2-3) private surf lessons. I’m located in the inner west so somewhere south/east is better for me. Would also need someone to provide a board as I want to sus out how I go before committing to a purchase. I work full time so would need to do lessons before 6.39am/past 6.30pm or on weekends. Cheers:) - Due date: Flexible
