Sommers Surf Lessons

I just wanted to thank you for all your help this weekend! It was such a great experience and I felt that I really learned a lot. I can not wait to get back out there."

Amelia

"I had so much fun last weekend and can't wait to come back. You are so great at what you do. On the first day after our lesson your friend said to me, "Michelle was meant to teach these lessons." He is completely on par. You're great at what you do.  You're so responsive and positive. I can feel the good energy."

Laura 

"Thank you so much for today!  I had a great time and really feel like I learned a lot.  You are a great instructor."

Hilary

"Thank you so much for your time and patience with Samuel today!  He hasn't stopped talking about his lesson or surfing with the boys since we left the state park."

Christine

"Michelle, that was SO MUCH fun!! Can't wait to do it again. The lesson was well done and you're a great teacher: patient, positive, and helpful when you need to be. I really enjoyed myself (and I actually got up) -- thanks!"

Pam

"I just wanted to thank you for your instruction, kindness, encouragement, and generosity this week.  You were a total pleasure to be with and you really helped to build our comfort and confidence.  I had wanted to surf since I was young and I figured that I was too old to learn in my mid-twenties, but you proved me wrong."

Beth

"Ava, Sofia, and Katie (as well as Dan) can not stop talking about surfing!  Thank you for giving them the tools to explore surfing and begin a passion I have a feeling will last a life time!"

Carol 

 "Your leadership is a gift to the surfing community."

Linda

"Thank you for a wonderful memory with my daughter."

Martha 

"I had a wonderful time at the surf camp.  Even with not so great

conditions, I learned a lot and had a ball."

Anne 

"Thank you so much!  I had an amazing time, especially when I was able to ride the waves!  You are an amazing instructor..so calm, fun, patient and relaxed!  It really was a pleasure meeting you!"

Megan 

"Thanks again for Ava's awesome lesson. Really - you took a little girl who isn't very athletic and has asthma - and (in her mind) let her become Bethany Hamilton for a moment. It meant so much to her and to me. She has been watching the video clips over and over again and just beams every time.

Here is a link to the 'big' moment! Your reaction is also awesome! I can tell how much you love the sport and sharing it with others.

You'll definitely be seeing us again!"

Stacy - mom to 10-year-old Ava who took her first lesson July 2012 

"I was with you one time for a couple hours and I learned so much. I was getting so frustrated and now after today I have completely turned around. You deserve every award they can give you."

"I had an awesome time. I appreciate all of your help, more than you know. I definitely want to go out again as soon as possible."

"Thanks again Michelle. You are a great teacher with such patience! You will definitely see me again!"

Elaine 

"Thanks so much for a wonderful day of surf instruction.  You are a fantastic instructor with so much enthusiasm, knowledge and positive vibes to make me feel like I can surf.  I can't wait to set up another day of Surf camp with you and the others.  It was wonderful meeting such a wonderful group of like minded ladies who just wanted to have some fun in the surf!"

"I am so glad I took a lesson with you before I left the beach! I have had surfing on my mind ever since:)

It was so much fun to surf with you and I am without a doubt coming back soon for another lesson, hopefully soon!  Thanks for giving a great lesson and making me realize how much I love it!"

Kathleen

"Michelle, thank you thank you thank you!  You did everything possible to make it a great experience ... and you on a board on a wave -- pure poetry!"

best time and still I can't stop smiling about it!"

Lori 

"Everything you did (goodie bag, food/snacks, safety tips, photo, etc.) really showed how much thought, care, and hard work you put into the camp. I had only two goals -- try to get up on the board and have fun, and both were accomplished. It was so much fun, and I'm hooked! I can't stop smiling and thinking about it."                

Julia 

"I absolutely loved your camp this past weekend.  You are an awesome instructor and I am so glad my husband got me in touch with you!"
