About Paul

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.

About Hannah

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!

What students say...

"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.

What students say...

"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!
