An all female instructors surf school! The original goal of this school was (and still is) to empower women to feel comfortable learning to surf. As surfing now boasts a more equal male to female ratio the school has opened its doors to all but still strives to ensure all people regardless of age, gender, physical ability etc. feel welcome in the surf scene. Also fun fact your host Molly used to work here :)
