Don't Just Stand There !   £69pp

"Don't Just Stand There !" An intensive one day course - combining classroom theory and practical.
Next Course March 4th 2006
This course is a full day aimed at surfers who can stand up consistently...and that’s about it!  The lesson has half day in the class room covering subjects such as wave judgement, speed generation, body rotational movement, bottom turns and angle take offs using video and demonstrations.  It also looks at safety areas such as Rocks, rips and other top tips.

 Then take a break for lunch. After that we go in search of the best local surf spot and spend the whole afternoon in the water practicing the skills you have learnt in the morning.  You will have full in the water coaching with our fully Qualified British Surf Association instructors who are qualified to teach beginners, intermediates and competition level surfers.

This whole day costs just £69 and lasts around eight hours or longer if the surfs really good!!  It also includes lunch and use of any equipment if you need it.

 This course is solely aimed at surfers who want to move on to the next level, learning how to put in solid turns and getting around sections etc, it is for people who really want to move on in their surfing instead of just riding to the shore...hence the course name.

This course is a full on day, but will definitely improve your knowledge not to mention your surfing ability.  It’s a good idea to bring pens / paper for notes as there is a lot of content throughout.

Take off on a wave with your instructor right beside you!  This way you quickly learn how to take off in a perfect position etc.

You will also be shown bottom turns and how body rotational movement actually works. Throughout the lesson you will be encouraged to copy your instructor who will guide you through to progress to your next level. The course costs £45 and includes use of any equipment if you need it.

Be prepared to see a steep learning curve on this course, but also be prepared to be totally exhausted afterwards! We don't want any moaning because you want to sleep for a week!  It is hard work but highly rewarding.
