RE: Re: Pushing the envelope...Surf Diva Info

[Guest guest]

Here's the link: http://www.surfdiva.com/

And here's a bit from their site:

World's 1st Surf School for Women & Girls!

Our surf school promotes, teaches, and supports surfing for women of all

ages. Surf Diva also teaches private and coed lessons, including men upon

request. We supply the appropriate wetsuits and surfboards for your use.

Preparation

What is the best way to help my body prepare for surfing?

Swimming is great. Pushups, sit-ups, and yoga are all extremely helpful.

Cross-training on a skateboard like the Surf Diva skateboard is a fun way

practice your stance and balance, not to mention great exercise and

transportation.

How good of a swimmer do I need to be?

You should be a competent swimmer (able to swim 200 yards) and be

comfortable in the ocean.

" I don't think you will have a wetsuit for me because I am an extra large or

extra small person. "

No worries. We ask that all students give us their size so that we can make

arrangements for a proper wetsuit for you (sizes range from XS to XXL).

Facilities and Getting there

What facilities are near the La Jolla Shores Beach?

There are several lifeguard stations, restrooms, showers, and public phones

at the beach. There is a large parking area, but it fills up early. Within

walking distance, there are hotels, convenience stores, a few shops, and

restaurants. Check out this website for other info on the La Jolla area:
