Item Description
Do you want to learn to surf? Perfect Day Surf Camp is offering one full day of summer 2012 surf camp. Ages 5-17. New clients only. Expires at the end of summer 2012.
Perfect Day Surf Camp is sponsored by Quiksilver and Roxy and located in Southern California’s beautiful Redondo Beach & Santa Monica Beach. Robbie Yrigoyen founded Perfect Day Surf Camp in 2001. The organization offers surf & beach camps for all ages starting at 5. Our co-ed adult & mommy and me surf workshops are on the weekends. We also do annual non-profit events with professional surfers for Cystic Fibrosis Survivors, inner city kids & battered women. We cater to all surfing levels offering a variety of soft surf boards and 5:1 surfers to instructor ratio in the water at all times. Surf Staff is CPR/First Aid Certified instructors. Experienced surfers will surf all day and learn basic tricks & maneuevers to help them progress to that next level which they can apply in contests or free style fun. Beginner surfers will get one on one attention if initially intimidated, but once they learn the basics and understand that it is a sandy bottom, safe environment; their fears are put to rest. Our camps offer both surf & beach or we like to call it "pre-surf school" where we educate our young ones on how to first understand the ocean & its waves, then boogie board and eventually surf. This progression will keep your child from being fearful of the ocean which is very common when they are put into camps with higher swimming levels & older children. Once they get spooked it is very difficult to get them back in, so play it safe. Baby steps.
Our goal is to get each surfer up riding waves and understanding them, so we spend most of the time in the water and discuss ocean safety, surf etiquette, oceanography and coastal ecology. We allow each surfer to go at their own pace while the instructors stay close to encourage them using motivational techniques and guide them into the waves. When the ocean is not safe to enter, we provide a variety of beach activities that the instructors encourage all kids to participate in.
