About Matthieu

With a deep love for surfing and travel, I'm dedicated to sharing my expertise with beginners and intermediate surfers. After studying teaching methods in Lagos, Portugal, I earned the ISA Surf Instructor Level 1 diploma. My experience extends from the waves of Lanzarote in the Canary Islands to the pristine breaks of Tahiti in French Polynesia. Let's embark on a surfing journey together, where you'll learn the ropes while exploring the beauty of the ocean!

What students say...

"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!
