Did you always want to learn how to surf? The truth is that it is never too late to learn and practice this amazing sport for the rest of your life. This is a beginner class with all the fundamentals of surfing emphasized each class. Adults with more experience are also welcome to join class to work on turning and help with getting to your next personal milestone. Location for Adult Surf Class is at our 1 South Bath Ave – Long Branch location. Class runs 90 minutes with about 60-70 minutes of actual surf time every Saturday geared to both male and female students all summer long. Lessons include surfboard, wetsuit and rash guard. Please bring bathing suit, warm clothes, sandals, beach towel, sun block and extra water. This is a small class with personal attention from our qualified surf instructors with low student to instructor ratios. Before we go surfing, we stretch together as one big group to go over surf conditions before breaking off into smaller groups with instructor to go over pop ups, stance, safety, paddling, timing and ocean awareness. Grouping is based on surfing experience. All days canceled due to weather or rip tides will be made up. Please register directly online for adult class. IF YOU NEED TO CANCEL, PLEASE GIVE US AT LEAST 48 HOURS NOTICE FOR MAKE UP. MAKE UPS WILL NOT BE ISSUED WITH LESS THAN 48 HOURS NOTICE.
Rates: 1 session for 90 minutes: $75

Adult Surf Class Refunds – If you need to cancel prior to 4 weeks of your class beginning, we can issue a full refund with no cancellation fees. Within 4 weeks of your week beginning and at least 48 hours notice, we can issue a makeup for future class dates, if space is available. Please note that class does sometimes sell out for certain dates, so makeup dates are not always available and can be limited. We post on our website as soon as weeks sell out and will add you to a list of dates for makeups that become available. Within 4 weeks notice for cancellation if you are not available for a make up, we can issue a refund with a $25 cancellation fee. If you cancel with at least 2 weeks notice, we can issue a 50% refund. Cancellations 48 hours before your class begins, we do not issue refunds or make ups.
Scheduling – All students should complete their enrolled class days before the summer is over to avoid losing the days completely. No make up camp days can be carried over into the new year.
Substitutions – We do allow substitutions prior to you starting class and we do ask for at least 24 hours notice for any substitution with new name and email. Any payment arrangements must be handled outside of Summa Love processing, we will only substitute the student and do not issue a refund.
Communication- When signing up, please make sure your email is included and accurate. We use email to alert for weather events, time changes, and additional important information. Please check your email regularly and always before heading to class.
Poor Weather – We will make the final call the morning of class. If we cancel or delay class, we will email everyone reserved and also post on the website on the bottom left of summalove.com with at least 2 hours notice. If we cancel class, we issue a make up. If thunderstorms hit 1/2 way through the class, we evacuate the beach immediately and wait until the storm passes to resume surfing. Make ups will not be issued for thunderstorms/ weather related issues outside of our offered makeup or extended camp.
NOTE – WE OPERATE RAIN OR SHINE! Some of the best surfing conditions happen when it is raining. If rain is in the area with scattered showers and overcast skies, we will most likely be surfing with surf camp OPEN. We have plenty of wetsuits to keep the kids warm. If rain is heavy/drenching, it’s cold out and very windy with rough seas and the forecast calls for the whole day to be like that, we most likely will cancel. Year to year we only cancel surf camp due to poor weather 0-2 times the whole season! Just because rain is in the forecast does not mean we will cancel surf camp or lessons. If you miss class due to the weather and class is ON, you will not be given a makeup.
