Intro to Surfing

Intro Surfing Course Overview

The intro surfing experience offered by Swell Health Coaching in Kihei is a comprehensive course designed specifically for kids. This intro surfing class focuses on understanding the ocean, respecting the environment, and learning how to take care of our bodies. It begins with essential land-based lessons that prepare young surfers for the water.

Land-Based Learning

During the intro surfing sessions, participants start by learning to read the weather conditions and warming up properly to avoid injuries. The course also covers the parts of the surfboard and the proper use of surf wax, which is crucial for grip and safety. These foundational lessons build confidence and knowledge before entering the ocean.

Water Skills and Safety

After the land portion, if conditions are safe, the class moves into the water. Kids learn paddling techniques, how to fall safely, and the essential skill of popping up on the board. This hands-on approach ensures that children develop practical surfing skills while maintaining safety as a priority.

Locations and Setting

The intro surfing classes take place at two beautiful locations in Hawaii. On the west side, sessions are held at Kapalua Bay, specifically on the far right side when facing the ocean near the rental place. On the south side, lessons occur at The Cove Beach Park, under the shade tree on the far left side when facing the ocean. These scenic spots provide ideal environments for beginners to learn surfing.
