Private Surfing Lessons & Instructors in Spring Valley, CA

Surfing since I was 10 years old all over the world. Started working at the mission bay aquatic center last summer teaching 3000+ students aged 6-22 in various conditions at mission beach, San Diego. Red Cross certified.

I’ve taught several people so far, I’ve surfed for over 20 years. I have a go with the flow kind style. I want to know what I am working with so I’m going to have the student practice there pop up on the beach. Check them on what they should work on and then advance.

I've been teaching surfing and swimming for 12 years. I still get fired up when someone catches their first wave! I got my start teaching in 2014 at Mission Bay Aquatic Center. Besides that, I've also worked with Life Rolls On, helping surfers with special needs catch their first wave since 2017. My teaching style is patient, fun and encouraging. I have traveled all over the world and can also teach lessons in español tambien!

"We booked this experience last minute (day before on a whim, and we couldn't have asked for it to be any better! David was absolutely fantastic and had both our kids (ages 5 and 9) comfortable on a surf board very quickly. They were both able to stand up and surf (not every time, but both at least once!) and just really had a blast trying it out. Communication and scheduling was quick and easy. I would absolutely recommend trying a lesson!
