Small Group Coaching
From £120
Includes:
- Pre-surf warm-up session focusing on mobility, technique, individual goals and focus areas
- Surf session (Turns or Manoeuvres settings)
- Video analysis session with detailed feedback and improvement actions
Our Small Group Coaching sessions are designed to deliver personalised coaching with a maximum ratio of 1 coach to 4 students, delivered within our normal sessions.
Sessions are run during our Turns and Manoeuvres settings and begin with the coach meeting the group 30 minutes before the surf. This pre-surf warm-up includes mobility work, technique preparation, and a discussion to identify individual goals and focus areas for the session.
Surfers then head into the water to put these goals into practice, with the coach observing and providing guidance throughout the session.
After the surf, there is a video analysis session, where the coach provides feedback to each surfer, highlights key strengths, identifies areas for improvement, and shares actionable tips.
These sessions are ideal for surfers looking to refine their turns and manoeuvres while benefiting from personalised coaching and the motivation of a small group environment.
