What the day feels like
What the Two Hours Feel Like
The lesson moves from dry to wet: first, a hands-on land session where you practice pop-ups and cover safety and etiquette; then you transfer that practice to the ocean in a private session with focused coaching. Expect continuous instructor feedback and equipment provided so you can concentrate on timing and balance rather than logistics.
