PEPIJN TIGGES
Hi, My name is Pepijn Tigges professional surf coach and I am one of the surf coach hosts for the Solid Surf Coach Retreats. Check the dates where you will find me.
At the age of 12 years old surfing became an important part of his daily routine besides school. Only for fun in the beginning but short after he started surfing in the National Championships, being part of the National Surfteam, surfing the WSL Qualification Series and many years later, joining the World Championship aka the World Surfing Games for the Netherlands in Japan.
These were some of the big challenges he faced within his surfing career. Always working hard to improve, not only physically but also mentally, nutrition wise and technically.

The frequency of surf coaching sessions can vary depending on your availability and goals. Some surfers opt for regular weekly or bi-weekly sessions, while others prefer occasional tune-up sessions or intensive training camps.

To find a reputable surf coach, you can start by asking for recommendations from fellow surfers or local surf schools. You can also search online directories, surf coaching websites, or inquire at surf shops in your area. It’s important to choose a coach with proper qualifications, experience, and a coaching style that aligns with your learning preferences.
