• Playa de las Américas - Basic Theory (15-20 minutes)
  Before entering the water, the essential aspects of land surfing will be explained, ensuring participants start the class with the necessary information and understand what is expected during the water session.

Positions on the Surfboard:
The session begins with teaching the basic positions on the surfboard. The correct posture and positioning on the board will be explained, taking into account whether the participant is right or left dominant, as this will affect the direction of movement on the waves. These positions will be practiced on land to ensure comfort before entering the sea.

Paddling: Participants will be shown how to maintain proper body positioning to prevent quick fatigue and achieve optimal propulsion.

The pop-up technique, which involves quickly and smoothly standing up once on the wave, will be taught.

Water Practice: Movements will be corrected, motivation will be provided, and the experience will be made enjoyable. After practice, participants will return to the shore for a brief stretching session to relax the muscles after exertion.
