The Surf Institute’s private and small group surf lessons and coaching are available in California, including Ventura and Malibu. We coach at surf locations with easy-going waves that offer novice surfers a forgiving take-off and smooth ride, while giving intermediate and advanced surfers the ultimate canvas to perfect style and technique. Students of TSI’s program, which was created by surfing stylista, Carla Zamora, are guaranteed to receive the best tools and tips to progress swiftly.

Generally, Carla oversees all intermediate and advanced clients in Malibu and Ventura. Beginner sessions are handled by one of TSI’s experienced coaches.*

*All TSI coaches are insured as well as CPR/First Aid certified for adults and children by the Red Cross.
