I have 35 years of surfing experience. My passion for the ocean fuels enjoyable sessions that build confidence and progression. During our session I blend technical skill, wave‑reading and safety expertise with patient, motivating teaching.

I’ve been surfing since I was 4 years old, and for the past 18 years I’ve been sharing my passion by teaching people of all ages how to surf. As a former professional surfer, I combine experience, technique, and a love for the ocean in every lesson. My specialty is teaching children, but I also coach beginners and advanced surfers through in-water instruction and personalized video analysis to help them improve their skills and confidence.

Hi, I’m Shawn Naseri, a professional surf instructor with over 20 years of teaching experience in Los Angeles.

I look forward to helping you catch your first wave or improve your surfing skills.

I have extensive experience as a private surf coach in Southern California and in Central Florida. I am an Orange County California native who has been surfing since grade school and can teach all levels, from beginners who have never surfed before to intermediate surfers who are looking to hone their skills. I am fully certified as an advanced Lifesaver (with all the requisite knowledge) and worked as a junior lifeguard in Orange County when I was in high school and college.

Surfing is one of the few things that pulls me completely into the present, and I want to share that feeling. Of all the sports I've enjoyed, there's something magical about working with nature and learning to read it. I've spent years surfing and chasing waves in different parts of the world, and its become a major way I explore and experience new places. Whether you're a beginner or building confidence, my goal is for you to leave feeling more confident and even more excited to get back out!

"Hannah is my sister but I asked her to help me with my turns. She would watch me surf and give me feedback about my bottom turns and snaps. I definitely got better having her to tell me what I can fix.

With two decades of surfing experience and an amateur background, I tailor lessons to each student's needs. My goal is to help you ride waves confidently, safely, and with a smile, regardless of your current skill level.

"We booked this experience last minute (day before on a whim, and we couldn't have asked for it to be any better! David was absolutely fantastic and had both our kids (ages 5 and 9) comfortable on a surf board very quickly. They were both able to stand up and surf (not every time, but both at least once!) and just really had a blast trying it out. Communication and scheduling was quick and easy. I would absolutely recommend trying a lesson!
