Kids Surf Lessons at Peña Txuri Surf Eskola
Instilling a love for the ocean from a young age is one of the greatest gifts you can give them. At Peña Txuri Surf Eskola, we offer surf lessons for kids specifically designed for young adventurers aged 6 and up. We know that their first contact with the waves will shape their relationship with the sea forever.
As parents, we understand your priorities. That is why our goal is to offer a safe, fun, and educational experience, where children will learn the fundamentals of surfing while enjoying the sea and waves in a safe environment. We don’t just train little surfers; we build confident, balanced children with a deep respect for nature.
What Do We Offer in Our Children’s Surf Lessons in Sopelana?
Child pedagogy requires a special approach. We offer courses adapted for different ages and levels taught throughout the year, with a teaching methodology that ensures progressive and safe learning. We work with small groups and very tight ratios so that our instructors never lose sight of any student at any time.
For your complete peace of mind, children receive absolutely all the necessary technical equipment, including softboards specially sized for them and high-quality wetsuits that protect them from the cold. Additionally, families can enjoy the comfort of our beachfront facilities with full changing rooms and hot showers.
Step by Step: A Surf Day with Us
Organization is key so that children feel calm and parents feel confident. This is the detailed itinerary of our surf courses for the little ones:
- Arrival at the School: Meeting point at our school located right on the beach. We introduce the instructor to break the ice, hand out the wetsuits, and select the right board for their weight and height.
- Introduction and Safety (Vital): Playful but firm explanation of safety rules on the sand and in the water. We teach them basic knowledge about currents, tides, and how to act in different situations calmly.
- Basic Techniques on the Sand: Practical teaching on the sand through games on how to paddle, how to position themselves on the board, and the technique to stand up correctly. They will practice essential movements before entering the water.
- Water Practice: Application of what has been learned in the waves with the constant supervision and support of the instructor, who will be in the water with them at all times. We aim for their first experiences surfing the whitewater, fostering confidence and interest in surfing.
- Closing and Feedback: Washing and collecting the equipment, teaching them to care for the gear. Finally, space to change and take a hot shower in our comfortable facilities.
