About Eduardo

I'm Coach Ed, a lifelong surfer from Brazil, and I've been riding the waves since I was 7 years old! Now at 44, surfing is more than just a passion—it's a way of life. For over 20 years, I've been sharing that passion by teaching surf lessons, working with all ages and skill levels. I love helping others find their stoke on the waves. I'm also a proud family man, with a beautiful wife and a lovely young daughter who keep me grounded and inspired every day.

What students say...

"Ed is an impressive! a professional who knows how to technically teach you how to improve and easily understand how to maximize your surfing potential. I highly recommend this excellent instructor.

"My first time using this app. Matthieu is a great coach. I’ve been surfing for a couple of years but I’m still a beginner. Matthieu gave a lot of actionable tips and took video so I could see what I did wrong. Will be booking another lesson with him!
