GOLDEN WAVE SURF SCHOOL REVIEW

A good school, I advise everyone. Long wanted to learn surfing. Took individual lessons, relatively to other schools is very cheap. The approach to classes is excellent. The coach brings everything for classes, you do not need to look for or buy yourself. Thanks to Alex, stood on the board in the second lesson. Thank you so much. I will study and advise my friends only this school. Also if you want a photo for yourself, then there is a photographer option.

I had an amazing experience at Golden Wave Surf School! The instructors were patient and knowledgeable, and they helped me progress from a complete beginner to catching my own waves in just a few lessons

Всем привет!)Делюсь своими впечатлениями!
Я нашла GW Сёрф Школу через Инстаграм. Специально искала русского инструктора, так как не очень хорошо владею языком. При первой же встрече Лёша располагает к себе! Если у вас вдруг плохое настроение забудьте о нем “добро пожаловать на волну”! Занятия проходят 2часа, готовьтесь не только поработать хорошенько, но и научиться чувствовать океан, что не мало важно для сёрфера! Лёша очень подробно объясняет, поддерживает, подбадривает, заставляет повторять и практиковать. Я довольна! Но, для меня оказалось мало 5ти занятий, только потому-что я научилась ловить волну!!! И мне хотелось ещё! Но Калифорния звала странствовать, поэтому больше 5ти не получилось:((
Что я хочу сказать про Лёшу!? Ну во-вервых, он классный!:) Во-вторых он влюблён в свою работу, а это значит вы получите 100% результат. В-третьих он требовательный, это значит вы будите в тонусе и опять 100% результат!
Удачи новички!!;))

Довелось познакомиться с серфингом через Алекса. В нашей маленькой группке был разный контингент: женщины, мужчины, дети… Вывод один: если не хотите проблем в дальнейшей жизни- не пробуйте, не берите уроки у Алекса! Иначе, вас постигнет наша участь- серфинг захватит ваше сердце и ваш мозг! Начнутся мучительные планирования дальнейших возможностей и занятий! Эти мысли будут управлять вами! Вы обречены!
Но нам терять уже нечего, мы заражены этим вирусом! Алекс, спасибо огромное за океан удовольствия и эмоций! Ждем фото!))

I had SO much fun at my lesson. I did not try how to surf before and was scary that i could not make it . We started with all of the basics on the beach and did them several times to set them in my muscle memory. Alex did great  job about explaining how everything would work in the water before we got in there. Once in the water, I felt totally safe and in control. Alex does a great job of choosing the good waves and helping you have as much fun as possible. I stand up and even ride a couple of waves in and I was thrilled and so happy!! Thanks a lot to Alex.

Ich hatte das große Glück, dass ich spontan für den nächsten Tag Surfunterricht nehmen konnte. Da die anderen zwei aus der Gruppe spontan am selben Tag abgesagt hatten, erhielt ich unerwartet Privatunterricht zum selben Preis wie in einer Gruppe. Das fand ich sehr lieb von Alex. Er hat sein Wort gehalten und mir trotzdem Unterricht gegeben.
Ich kann ihn als Lehrer nur empfehlen. Er hat sich viel Mühe gegeben mir meine Fehler zu erklären und zu korrigieren. So habe ich es als fast “blutiger” Anfänger geschafft mehrfach aufzustehen Zündverteiler mega glücklich.
Vielen Dank für das tolle Erlebnis! Sollte ich wieder in L.A. sein,werde ich wiederkommen!

I took few lessons with this guys. Alex is so friendly and nice man. Had a lot of fun and positive during the lessons. Amazing school. I’ll tell my friend about this school.

Artem K. on www.yelp.comstudent

It was amazing!! I’ve taken a few lessons from Golden Wave Surf School and i want more. Alex seriously the best teacher! He has so much patience and he is great in explanation. Everything was amazing. I caught my first wave on first lesson, i was so happy about it. I would recommend this school to everyone who wants to learn how to surf.

Sergey A. on www.yelp.com

Всем привет! Были с подругой в ЛА, давно хотели опробовать сёрфинг. Нашли школу, нас встретил молодой человек на Венис бич. Леша, спасибо тебе большое. Всем очень понравилось. Было все понятно, доступно и как и обещали, на доску встали на первом занятии. Hello everybody! Shortly speaking everything was amazing. I strongly recommen

Golden Wave Surf School is fantastic. Alex works one on one with you and makes you feel very comfortable in the water. He walks you through every thing step by step so that you can easy your way into the process. I am technically a beginner and it wasn’t  as hard or complicated as I thought it would be thanks to Alex. Can’t wait to surf with them ! Will defiantly  recommended him to all my friends.
