Private Surfing Lessons & Instructors in San Diego, CA

With 15 years of riding the waves under my belt, surfing isn't just a sport for me—it's a way of life. For the past two years, I've had the privilege of passing on my passion as a surf instructor, guiding others to find their balance and embrace the ocean's rhythm. From catching that first wave to mastering advanced techniques, I'm here to share the stoke and help you unlock the magic of surfing. Let's paddle out and ride the waves together!

Surfing since I was 10 years old all over the world. Started working at the mission bay aquatic center last summer teaching 3000+ students aged 6-22 in various conditions at mission beach, San Diego. Red Cross certified.

Unlocking your surfing potential is my passion. As a former professional snowboarder transitioned to surf fanatic. I know just how rewarding catching your first wave is! These lessons will pass down into the rest of life as well. Truly a magical thing to learn in the most fun way possible! Let’s learn to surf together!

I’ve grown up with a passion for the ocean and surfing, and I enjoy sharing that passion with others. I have four years of experience teaching surfing to people of all skill levels, helping them build confidence and develop their skills in the water.

I’ve taught several people so far, I’ve surfed for over 20 years. I have a go with the flow kind style. I want to know what I am working with so I’m going to have the student practice there pop up on the beach. Check them on what they should work on and then advance.

I've been teaching surfing and swimming for 12 years. I still get fired up when someone catches their first wave! I got my start teaching in 2014 at Mission Bay Aquatic Center.
