Although some surfing experience is recommended, it’s not always necessary to participate in the Surf Instructor course. We have had successful students who went through the Zero to Hero experience, indicating that anyone with a passion for surfing and a willingness to learn can enroll in the course.

To qualify for the Surf Instructor certification, one must possess a combination of essential surf skills and fitness levels. The timed run-swim-run of 200m completed in less than 5 minutes is a crucial component of the course that ensures participants possess the necessary physical stamina to handle the challenging conditions in the water.

In addition to fitness, aspiring surf instructors must also possess a certain level of proficiency in surfing. The ability to paddle out to the back of the waves, execute duck dives, consistently perform pop-ups on green waves, and execute basic maneuvers while turning both left and right are all critical skills that are necessary to obtain the qualification.

The Surf Instructor course is designed to help students develop and improve their surfing proficiency and fitness levels. Through a combination of instruction, practice, and feedback, participants will work on enhancing their skills and abilities. Whether through training drills, group sessions, or individual instruction, the course aims to equip aspiring surf instructors with the skills they need to pass the certification and succeed in their career.

Travel and cancellation insurance are essential for any traveler, as unforeseen circumstances can arise during any trip. Such circumstances can include accidents, medical emergencies, loss of baggage or passports, and trip cancellations or interruptions. Without insurance, travelers may find themselves facing significant financial losses.

Travel insurance provides coverage for such unforeseen events, ensuring that travelers are protected against financial losses that may arise due to these events. Cancellation insurance, in particular, provides coverage for the expenses incurred when a trip is canceled or interrupted due to unforeseen circumstances.

Thus, having travel and cancellation insurance is crucial for travelers as it offers peace of mind and financial protection during their journeys.
