About your surfing coach

Hailing from the coastal paradise of Chile, I've spent the last 20 years riding the waves and honing my surfing skills. For the past 5 years, I've been sharing my passion for surfing through teaching lessons, helping countless individuals discover the thrill of riding the waves. With a deep love for the sport, I excel at breaking down techniques and providing personalized guidance to help students learn and improve quickly. Join me for a surf session, and I'll have you catch waves and ride confidently from your first lesson. Let's hit the surf and make unforgettable memories together! … please if this is your first surf lesson or you last experience surfing was over a year, book me for at least 1.5 or 2 hrs. Is my obligation as surf instructor to teach you the basics to go safe to the water, so be prepared to spend 25-30 minutes in the sand learning, only for your first lesson. After your first lesson 1 hour lessons are ok, I’ll just check your pop up, give you a few pointers and then we hit the ocean🤙🏽… looking forward to see your smile after you catch your first wave 🌊 yewww!!

What you need to bringIf you have your equipment please bring it if not I can provide boards and some sizes of suits. Also when we go to the water we don’t bring much more than suits and board, so you don’t need much for your lesson with me. Also if you are looking to get good at the art of riding waves, I encourage you to start looking to buy your own suit and board, I can provide help for that.

Had an awesome first session with Claudio this morning! He was very thorough with our work on the sand, clear on how to keep yourself safe in all the events that can take place on the water, gave great instruction, and I like that he breaks down the “pop up” in more steps than what is typically are taught. He’s a super teacher, has an awesome vibe, and he really gives you a solid experience actually surfing 🏄🏽‍♂️. I purchased a 3 pack of lessons with him and am stoked to finish the last two with him, getting more time on the water SURFING!

Lessons with Claudio are great. I always feel safe going in the water with him. He also provides helpful guidance and makes sure that you are taking as many waves as possible. Highly recommended
