What people are saying

Check out our testimonials

Felipe and Lidia are wonderful, passionate about surfing, and fully devoted to their students. I was really impressed with the way Felipe was highly aware of exactly how much to push, and sensed when you reached your peak for the session, or when you had more left in the tank. It was the perfect amount to feel challenged and motivated to improve, but not so much as to be overwhelming.

Larbi Alaoui

I just started surfing earlier this year and was taught a poor pop up technique. Filipe was able to retrain my pop up technique as well as identify specific areas for improvement. His coaching is highly personalized and unique to each surfer. He helped not only with they physical aspect of surfing but also on my confidence and attitude during surfing

Kelly Upp

After 7 years of "surfing", I thought I would always use my right knee to take off. Also, the last couple of months I really did not feel confident and comfortable in the water. Filipe and Lídia helped me in only 1 (I am still amazed by that) session to not use my knee anymore. Their way of coaching is really easy going, they don't put any pressure on you and also help you not to put any pressure on yourself. But, they do challenge you to get rid of your old habits.
