Private Lessons & Intermediate surfers

Private lessons are available and can be booked to your convenience. Starting from £40 per person and getting cheaper the more people in your group you can find the details here.

 

If you've looking to improve your technique as an intermediate we find it's best to book a 1-1 lesson and we can get you a lesson that directly targets where you're looking to improve. You can book directly via our booking site or drop us a line at info@southshieldsurf.co.uk to talk about what you're wanting to get from your surfing.

​

We work closely with South Shields Boardriders Surf Club and we run their training sessions for those wanting to progress further with surfing. Membership to the club is £25 per year and can be sorted here.

​

For kids who can catch waves and are confident in the water and are club members we have weekly training sessions 3-4pm & 4-5pm developing the kids surfing. These sessions aren't for beginners and we ask for year long commitment. Sessions are £5 per person plus £2 if you need to borrow any equipment. For more info message info@southshieldsurf.co.uk

Private Lessons, Tours, & Intermediate Lessons

Private lessons are available and can be booked to your convenience. Starting from £40 per person and getting cheaper the more people in your group you can find the details here.

 

If you've looking to improve your technique as an intermediate we find it's best to book a 1-1 lesson and we can get you a lesson that directly targets where you're looking to improve. You can book directly via our booking site or drop us a line at info@southshieldsurf.co.uk to talk about what you're wanting to get from your paddle boarding.

​

We occasionally do tours exploring the bays, coves and caves between Sandhaven Beach down to Marsden but because we can only run these when the conditions are right (light winds and no waves) so best to drop us a message at info@southshieldsurf.co.uk to see when a tour is likely to go out. Tours are normally charged at £25 per person if a public group or we can do a tour on a private lesson if the conditions are right.

Typical Lesson

After we’ve done introductions and issued out equipment and you’ve got into your wetsuit: 

1. Go through some beach and water safety points.

2. Have a quick warm up and then get used to the water by jumping in the sea.

3. Give a demonstration and explanation of how to surf or paddle board

     (depending on your session) on the beach, giving you the chance to practice there

     first.

4. We then get into the water, showing you the best ways to enter the water or how 

     to improve on what you already do.

5. Then we’ll have loads of fun in the water!

6. Once we've had a go in the water we return to the shore briefly to give more

     directed feedback and demonstrations to get the best from the session.

7. Then we’ll get back in the water help you to correct your technique there.

​

Lessons normally last between 1-2 hours, depending on the session booked, and includes all equipment. You just need yourselves, swimwear, a towel and some warm clothing for afterwards.  The minimum age for a surf lesson is 6 and 8 for stand up paddle boarding
