Surf coaching packages
Choose a coaching level before you buy multiple lessons
SFC coaching packages are contact-first for now: choose beginner, intermediate or advanced, then ask SFC whether a five-session plan fits your goals and dates.
Start with the level, not the package
A coaching package only works when the surfer is placed at the right level. Beginner, intermediate and advanced do not describe ego or how many times someone has rented a board. They describe what the surfer can repeat in real water while listening to an instructor and sharing space with other people.
Use the level pages to choose the closest starting point, then contact SFC before paying for multiple lessons. The current package plan is not a regular checkout item. SFC needs to know the surfer’s experience, target dates, schedule flexibility and whether raw GoPro-style footage would help the coaching work.
Five-session coaching package
The coaching package concept is simple: buy a focused block of sessions, keep working with SFC over time and use each lesson to build on the last one. The first version should be five lessons, with a ten-lesson version available only after Scott confirms the margin, calendar rules and redemption process.
Because this is not a standard online checkout item yet, do not use the regular lesson calendar to buy a package. Contact SFC directly, explain the surfer’s current level and ask whether a coaching package is available for the dates and time windows you can actually use.
- Planned package size: five lessons first; ten lessons only if Scott approves it.
- Planned value: a meaningful but controlled package discount, not a deep discount that blocks higher-value lesson time.
- Planned timing: lower-volume windows where repeat coaching helps fill the calendar without crowding peak demand.
- Planned expiration: all sessions used inside the approved window, likely six to twelve months once Scott confirms the rule.
- Planned media: raw GoPro-style clips may be included when SFC confirms the camera plan, conditions and delivery expectation.
Where GoPro footage fits
Raw footage can help a student see the gap between how a wave felt and what the board, paddle, stance or line actually did. That can be useful across all three levels: beginners can see body position, intermediate surfers can see timing and advanced surfers can study speed, line choice and turns.
Footage should stay practical. The coaching package concept is raw review material, not a polished edit, a guaranteed camera angle or a promise that every wave will be captured. SFC needs to confirm the camera plan before the package starts because conditions, staffing and safety come first.
Pick the closest path
Beginner coaching is for surfers who are still building repeatable basics. Intermediate coaching is for surfers who can catch or ride some waves but lose timing, position or control. Advanced coaching is for independent surfers who want targeted feedback on line, speed, equipment choices or specific maneuvers.
If two levels seem plausible, choose the lower level and explain why when you contact SFC. A coach can always progress the work if the surfer is ready. Starting too high wastes water time and can turn a useful coaching plan into a safety and expectations problem.
Contact SFC before planning around a package
The coaching package is contact-first for now. SFC still needs to confirm package price, payment timing, eligible time slots, expiration, weather handling, reschedule deadlines, transferability and how unused sessions are handled.
If Scott and the booking system can support the package cleanly, the site can later add a dedicated purchase path. Until then, written confirmation from SFC matters more than any general page copy.
