Baleal is THE best place surf! With a very specific geology, Baleal has beaches facing almost every direction, so you can find a place to surf regardless of the conditions.
The sand bottoms with a very gentle inclination provides a very gentle wave that is amazing to learn, giving you time to stand up without stressing too much!
Nothing! We will teach you everything you need to know! From the names of the parts of the board, the safety rules and the technical aspects of surfing, you will learn every thing you need to become an autonomous surfer as fast as possible!
We focus on quality and we want to make sure you learn as much as possible as fast as possible!
Having that in consideration we have a maximum of 4 people per instructor. That number can vary up to 5 if is the same group/family or decrease in case of young children.
Our lessons are planned for 2h. This is the time we consider that will be a good time so you can learn a lot without rushing on the theoretical part or the practice on the beach, but we also have in consideration the weather and the fitness of the students: if you are too tired or too cold, we might finish a bit earlier. If you are having fun and we don't have any other lessons planned we can even stay a bit longer. The main goal is that you have the most fun!
Our instructor are very experienced and can teach every level! We will access your level and all your challenges, then we will make sure we prescribe exercises aimed to correct any mistakes and to take your surfing to the next level!
Surfing might seem difficult, but most of the times is just taught not in a good way... Most schools don't have in consideration 2 critical aspects of surfing:
Psychology and Biomechanics:
Psychology - Our brain is designed to protect us and it will do everything it can to do it... He knows you are in danger if you fall in the water and you stay there too long, so it will tell you everything he know for you not to fall... So far so good, he's just trying to do is job... the problem is that everything he knows are exactly the things that are going to make you fall. :)
Biomechanics - Most schools teach you a very difficult movement that biomechanically, doesn't make much sense because it's all on the limit on the range of the motion. Our body is a leverage system and our leverages don't work good on the limit of the range of the motion.
When you know this two things and you have strategies to work around this, surfing becomes very easy!
All the equipment is included (surfboard, wetsuit and mandatory insurance) the only thing you need to bring is swimming shorts/bikini and sunscreen if you use it. :)
The lessons can be booked as close as one day in advance. Usually we can always find a place for you, but if you book more in advance you can choose the times that best fit to your plans. The only thing we do not recommend is to come without reservation... you might get lucky and we might be able to fit you in, but in most cases that is difficult and we never like to say no.
