Once the presentations have been made with Bruno, you will equip yourself with a wetsuit and a board to then go to the beach. You will then be invited to warm up in the water in Bodysurf (use of your body and the power of the wave to glide on the water). Then you will return to the beach to perform various educational exercises. Finally you can take your first foams or waves depending on your level and the conditions. At the end of the course, you will do a quick debriefing before going to change in the changing rooms provided for this purpose. Equipment : You will evolve with equipment adapted to your level. For beginners it will be a board specially designed for learning, namely a board with a foam coating and flexible plastic fins which eliminates all risks of accidents with the board. Learning with a suitable board, accompanied by a qualified and experienced instructor, makes surfing accessible to all.
