About the surfing 101 for beginners' guide

The surfing 101 guide I wish I had when starting out

How it all started

A few years into occasional surfing, I committed to truly learn how to surf in late 2023. At this time, I struggled to find an online surf course that covered all the basics I would need to know as a beginner, in a way that is easy to follow and free. That’s when I decided to create my very own online surf course- both to teach myself to learn how to surf, but also to share what I’ve learned with fellow beginner surfers that might have the same questions I once had.

An online surf course designed to guide you step-by-step to learn how to surf

Where do you start? What is a good order to learn the different steps involved in surfing? In this surfing 101 guide, I have ordered the lessons in the order I would have wanted to take them myself when starting my surfing journey.

The guide consists of 5 modules, each comprising a series of lessons. It’s a step-by-step guide that makes it easy for you to know where to start and what lesson to go to next, feeling confident you have covered the surfing basics you need to know as a beginner at the end of the course.

At the end of each lesson, you can take a quiz to test your knowledge, making this an interactive online surf course.

Learn surf culture to make conversation (and friends) in the surfing community

Not only does this guide teach you the steps involved in surfing; it also explores surfing culture. You’ll learn about surf history, famous surfers, how surfing shows up in movies and music, and more. It’s all about connecting with other surfers and having fun in the waves!

Embark on this exciting journey with me as I break down the barriers to entry and bring the joy of surfing right to your screen with this interactive and engaging online surf course that will help you learn how to surf.
