Our Collective is entrenched in the local community. Surf Academy provides weekly coaching for Los Angeles and Santa Monica Middle and High Schools, including Lincoln, John Adams, area Mar Vista schools, and SAMOHI. Culver City HS and New Roads private school also approve independent pe credit for our surf program.
We compete. Surf Academy hosts five local contests in Santa Monica during the school year. Our season culminates with an all teams gathering on World Ocean Day--we celebrate our season and our connection to all surfers by one ocean.
This year, 2024-25, "Ocean Assessments" will happen at all surf practices for the first two weeks of each school semester. Every new student, regardless of school or grade level, must take this assessment that includes a short buoy swim, a paddle, two minutes of treading water, shoreline entries/exits, and other ocean safety basics. This assessment can be counted as the required swim test. It is NOT in lieu of the private surf lessons required if your child has never surfed and wishes to join one of the teams.
