About Kalani

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.

Coach Kenny

We’ll start with a detailed evaluation of your surfing, either in real time or with pre recorded clips, so we can pinpoint your strengths and areas for improvement. From there we’ll set specific performance goals and begin working on high impact adjustments like shoulder alignment, stance refinement, and body positioning to unlock more power and flow.

What do coaches say I need to bring to my lesson?

P

Coach Parker

surfing coach

If you have a surfboard that you’d like to learn on, I’d encourage you to bring it in order to build familiarity with your own board! Otherwise, I do have some boards for you to use.

Water can be cold. Now that summers here we can get away without wetsuits but if you get cold easy I recommend renting one. I have all the boards necessary for any skill type All you need to bring is a towel, swimwear and a water bottle is recommended. I have face sunscreen designed for surfing Rash guard can be provided, but not necessary. I personally wear a regular t-shirt in the water when I’m surfing in boardshorts and want to prevent rashes.

Students are responsible for bringing or renting their own wetsuit. I can recommend local rental options if needed.

What do coaches say about teaching kids and youth?

P

Coach Parker

surfing coach

Working at summer camps as a water ski instructor and lifeguard, I have experience teaching children water sports. For kids, it is very important to choose equipment and surf conditions that are suitable not only for their age but their skill level and water competency. Just as important though, is making them feel secure and confident throughout the lesson. Therefore it is key that the parent or guardian work with me to tailor the lesson for their child(ren).
