The Sherpa’s Surf Lessons Curriculum focuses on:
•    ocean safety
•    surf etiquette
•    beginner and intermediate strategies
•    surfing equipment

Mark’s Clients are usually in it for the long haul and progress to an intermediate level within 1 to 2 months. This is a process of moving through riding soft boards on whitewash to fiberglass or epoxy boards across the face of some smooth sweet waves. However we must emphasize that Mark has a great ability with absolute beginners and tailors each lesson according to the goals of the person.

A typical lesson will take between 1hour and 1.5 hours and include:
•    warm up and warm down stretching
•    equipment checks
•    wave simulation activities on the beach
•    a variety and stand up techniques to suit each surfer
•    paddling out through rips
•    dealing with currents
•    catching steep and gentle waves
•    surfing etiquette
•    mastering turns and riding across the wave
•    plus much more!
