Practical information
Introduction to and improvement of surfing in the form of group lessons lasting 1.5 hour.
Theory
After collecting your equipment (surfboard + lycra), your instructor will explain the various safety instructions to be followed on the surf spot: What are the currents? Where are the reefs and how to avoid them? How strong are the waves? What are the rules of priority on the water?
Practice
After the theory, it's time for practice! You will start with an adapted warm-up. After having warmed up your muscles and your cardio, the instructor will propose you pedagogical exercises with personalized advices and/or demonstrations.
Then, you will jump into the water and start rowing. The instructor will be present in the water, at your side. The aim will of course be to try to catch waves and stand up on your board!
Minimum age: from 5 years old, only if the child can swim
For safety reasons, children under 8 years old have to assist first to a private lesson.
Maximum age: there is no age limit for surfing but you must be physically fit
Insurance: during a surfing lesson, you are covered by the school's insurance for civil liability, only for damage caused by the school or by the equipment. However, damage to third parties is covered by your own civil liability insurance or by an additional insurance covering surfing in a school. Check that you are insured ! If you have any doubt, Surf Up suggests you to take a civil liability insurance on the website : assursport.fr.
