Surf Like a Girl Team is surf training for women: from those taking their first steps in surfing to those who already surf on their own and want to refine their technique, maneuvers and style.
No. Level I, in Florianópolis and São Paulo, is for women just starting out, or not yet able to surf on their own. The coach stays with you in the water for the whole session, working on take-off, safety, line-up etiquette, paddling and wave selection.
Surf Like a Girl Team has three levels. Level I builds the foundation, for those starting out. Level II works on independence, for those who already surf but still need support in the water. Level III is technical refinement with filmed sessions and video analysis, for those who already surf on their own. There's also Online video analysis, for anyone far from the training bases.
Surf Like a Girl Team's trainings and support are in Portuguese and English.
A Surf Like a Girl Team surf session lasts about 1.5 hours. Level III, and some of the plans, also include a 30-minute video analysis, with technical feedback and direction for your next sessions.
Surf Like a Girl Team opens trainings every week, depending on the wave conditions, so each session happens on the best days for your level. Training adapts to your routine and personal goals.
Yes. With Online video analysis you send videos of your surfing from anywhere in the world and book your video analysis meeting, at least 3 days ahead so your coach has time to watch the footage and prepare the technical analysis, exercises and next steps.
Surf Like a Girl Team trains in Florianópolis, usually on the beaches of the east and south of the island; in São Paulo, between Santos and the north coast, at beaches such as Guarujá, Cambury and Baleia; and in different beaches around Ericeira, Portugal. The beach is always chosen for the best conditions. There's also online video analysis for women anywhere in the world.
