What students say...

"My 9 year old daughter has taken lessons with Jamie starting at 6 years old. We have come to the North Shore 5-6 times and the highlight of her trip each time has always been her lessons with Jamie. He is a calm, kind, and patient teacher who has steadily improved her surfing while bolstering her confidence. She has done 5 consecutive days of lessons with Jamie this trip and she is hoping for one last one tomorrow. Looking forward to our next trip and more lessons with Jamie.
