Our surf lessons take place in the beautiful city of Lahaina on the island of Maui. Lahaina is very hot and dry about 80% of the year. If it rains it only sprinkles for about twenty minutes max.

Hang Loose Surf Club had an awesome summer break thanks to our many returnees and new friends that joined us for some Hawaiian fun in the sun! Our beginner surfers had a great time catching, surfing, and riding the longest waves on Maui at the Lahaina Beach.

A sideways stance is key to maintaining balance. So leave your face-forward skiing stance behind, my friend — you’re in Maui now. 2. Get Centered! Imagine a line running from the tip of the surfboard to its tail, cutting it in half. You want the arches of your feet to be dead-center on that imaginary line. You might even have an actual line to guide you. Lucky! 3. Get Wide! Place your feet a little wider than shoulder-width…
