Private Surf Coaching for People Who Want to Learn the Right Way

Surf Lessons in Canggu & Medewi

We don’t just entertain — we teach real surfing

Our Coaching Philosophy

We don’t believe in simply pushing people into waves. Real progress in surfing comes from understanding — timing, body position, wave choice, and how your movements affect the board. Each session is calm, personal, and adapted to your level, so learning feels structured rather than rushed. The focus is on building solid foundations, confidence, and awareness, allowing you to progress naturally and rely less on luck as your surfing develops.

Who This Coaching Is For

Complete beginners who want to learn in a safe, structured way

Beginners who already stand up but feel stuck and inconsistent

Intermediate surfers who want better wave reading, timing, and technique

People who prefer calm, focused coaching over rushed sessions

Anyone who values real learning and long-term progress

Nawir — Master Coach & Founder

Private surf coaching focused on technique, safety, and real progression — in Canggu & Medewi.

I work personally with beginners and intermediate surfers who want to understand surfing properly, not just stand up once. Each session is adapted to your level, pace, and energy, with clear guidance in the water and calm, structured feedback throughout the session.

What defines my coaching:

✔ Private-focused coaching (1-on-1 or very small groups)

✔ Real-time feedback on timing, paddling, take-off, and positioning

✔ Calm, structured sessions adapted to your pace and energy
