What people are saying about surfing with us

Here's the feedback we've received from people who have participated in our events and assisted surf lessons!

“They’re so passionate and you can see it with how they spend time with the kids, it’s genuine. They want to do it because they want to help.”

Evi, parent

“The positive effect of surfing is incredible. They were teaching them to stand up on the surfboard and surf. It was a fantastic day. Surfing releases anxiety and helps de-stress.”

Judi, parent

“After the first couple of sessions that [my daughter] had, she was quite calm at school and at home for that week afterwards. We kept wondering what had changed this week … and each time we figured out it was the surfing.”

Jasmine, parent
