“I had a wonderful lesson with Fabien - I came into town for work and he was able to accommodate me and my schedule pretty last minute. Iu2019m new to surfing and the waves were perfect for my skill level. Fabien was super cool, helped me work on positioning, how to spot a wave and try to paddle/catch one myself - he was an awesome coach and helped me surf wave after wave! It was the highlight of my week, I fully intend t”

“I've booked 2 lessons with SSF and both have been great! I brought my friend who had never surfed before on my first lesson and Fabien was great about catering to both of our levels: helping her get comfortable in the white water while also taking me out to some small green waves. I enjoyed it so much that I scheduled a second lesson which was also great. I learned how to not drag my knees as much during my pop up, a”

“Highly recommend taking a lesson with Fabien, especially if you are newer to surfing! Fabien gives excellent feedback and my confidence grew exponentially in just one class. Princeton Jetty is a great place for beginners/kids. I can't wait to bring my niece to learn from Fabien!”

“An amazing surfing experience! I had a great time learning with Fabienu2019s Surf Classes. Fabien is super patient, fun, and really good at explaining the basics in a way thatu2019s easy to understand, even for beginners like me. He makes sure everyone feels comfortable and safe in the water, while still pushing you to improve each time.”

“Fabien is 100% the best instructor hands down (chest up and paddle!)! Iu2019ve had a few different instructors and none have been able to teach me techniques that allow me to pop up on my own and Iu2019d consider myself a beginner. Iu2019m recommending him to my sister who lives close by. Low key wish I lived here to take weekly classes. 10/10! ud83cudfc4ud83cudffbu200du2640ufe0f”

“We took a surf lesson as a family. Fabien was able to adjust to the different athletic abilities and needs of your family. The equipment was great and clean. He was friendly and professional. I hope next summer my daughter will be able to attend surf camp with his school.”

“Fabien is an excellent instructor for Siri, my daughter who is non-speaking autistic. He is gentle, has amazing patience, understands and respects my daughter for the challenges she deals with due to her diagnosis. I suggest for other families with special needs should come check this place out.”

“We had such an amazing experience with Fabien and Michele! None of us had ever surfed before, but by the end of the first class we were already standing up on the boards. Theyu2019re both super friendly, patient, and make the whole class really fun. We loved it so much that we came back two weeks later for another session to keep improving. Highly recommend them if youu2019re looking to learn surfing in a supportive and enjo”
