MAGAZINES
“It was really brilliant! I think it helps to give women
confidence in a sport that is generally seen as a male thing. The
instructors
were very good at making me feel safe in the water too. I think five
days in a warm, sunny, safe environment really helps to built you
confidence. Lanzarote was also an interesting place to visit when ”
Alicia Pivaro, Surf Magazine
“The other advantage of a five day course is that you get
to meet a wide variety of people from all over Europe at Surf School
Lanzarote.”
Surf Magazine
“
Heading to the shore through the crashing Surf, standing frozen on
his board with a mixture of fear, elation, and a slight touch of
smugness. ‘Tell you what my boy’ he grins, ‘you
can Surf!’. Another of Tim Jones’s students graduates
with honors. And the startling truth is, he actually can – something
which distinguishes Surf School Lanzarote from nearly every rival
operation in Europe.”
F.H.M. Bionic Magazine
“Tim Jones of Surf School Lanzarote runs the only British
Surfing Association-approved school on the island, and he will have
anyone – yes anyone – up and riding within a few days.”
Esquire Magazine
“As well as the fitness benefits and feeling of well being
outdoors Surfing is a great way to meet people.”
Article on Surf School Lanzarote Health and Fitness Magazine
“But be warned Surfing is addictive. As we smugly headed off
with our Bronze Level (Surf School Lanzarote) certificates tucked
under our arms, we were already planning our next trip.”
Article on Surf School Lanzarote Health and Fitness Magazine
“But as well as teaching beginners and intermediates, the
School caters for experienced Surfers... If you think you are beyond
the need for coaching, think again.”
Surf Magazine
“Tim and his team turned out to be the most devoted instructors
I have ever met.”
