- Warm up and get to know your equipment.
- Surf awareness, paddling, and handling your surfboard.
- Catching waves. Riding your board lying down (prone) and progressing to standing up, both on the beach and practical in the water.

- Have fun.
For Intermediate Surfers:

You will be using the best learn to surf equipment and coaching available so there is every chance you will get a taste of standing up in your first lesson. It all depends on your fitness, balance and determination, but one thing is for sure if you keep persisting you will succeed and be a surfer in no time.

There will be rare times that we have to cancel your booked surf session:
- If the conditions are unsafe, this will be unlikely as COASTRIDER is mobile and we will only hold surf sessions at safe locations.
- If your Instructor is ill and no replacement is available. All surfers who have booked a session will be notified at the earliest time by phone if a cancellation is required. Your surf session will not be cancelled due to rain, heat or cold unless the conditions become unsafe during the session.

If surf conditions become unsafe during a lesson, the surfing instructor may modify the lesson and undertake activities on the beach rather than in the water, or the surf session may be rescheduled for another time. If the client has paid for a block of surf sessions at a discounted price, the refund will be based on the sessions already delivered at the un-discounted session price less the total amount paid. No refund is offered if the client refuses to comply with the COASTRIDER Surf Academy policy and the surfing instructor determines the client cannot participate in the surf session. If the client advises the surfing instructor of a medical condition such that the surfing instructor decides, that it would be unsafe for the client to participate in the session, a refund will be offered. If the instructor becomes aware of the clients medical condition after the lesson has commenced, such that the surfing instructor determines it is unsafe for the client to continue in the session, no refund will be offered.
