Surfing with a beautiful instructor in Hawaii! 美人インストラクターとハワイでSURF★

Reviewed by: RINO★

I went to Hawaii during Golden Week. My husband and I took a three-hour lesson. My husband has been surfing for seven years, and I was a beginner, but he took me to a beach near Ala Moana where there were few people, and we both had a great time.

There were six people in our group, and we had two super cute Japanese instructors, which was an incredible luxury for me to have a surf lesson in Japanese in Hawaii as a beginner. They were gentle when we entered the water and encouraged me, who lacks stamina, so I was able to take the lesson with peace of mind.

My husband really liked the beach with no people, and when he mentioned that he wanted to surf there again the next day, they kindly brought the surfboard to Ala Moana Beach for our lesson the next day. He was very satisfied that he could surf outside of Waikiki without renting a car.

I definitely want to request this again next time.

ゴールデンウィークにハワイに行ってきました。
主人と３時間レッスンを受けました。
主人はサーフィン歴７年、私は初心者でしたが、アラモアナの方のビーチまで車で連れて行ってくれ、人も少なく主人も私も思う存分楽しめました。
６名のグループでしたが、日本人の超カワイイインストラクターが２人付いてくれて、初心者の私にはハワイで日本語のサーフレッスンが受けられるなんて最高に贅沢でした。
海に入っても優しく、そして体力のない私を励ましてくださり、安心してレッスンを受けることができました。

主人はこの人のいないビーチがすごく気に入り、次の日もここのビーチでサーフィンをしたいと言ってみると、
次の日のレッスンに合わせて、サーフボードをアラモアナのビーチまで持ってきて下さいました。
レンタカーを借りずにワイキキの海以外でサーフィンができ、大満足の様子でした。

次回も是非お願いしたいと思います。

Amazing!! 最高！！

Reviewed by: shinsuke

I originally started shortboarding in Japan, but I struggled with takeoff. I felt some resistance to lessons in Japan, so I thought I would participate in Hawaii instead.

As a man, I wondered how it would be with only female instructors, but the atmosphere was quite friendly and pleasant. The instructor was, of course, beautiful (laughs). The lessons were tailored to my level, and the teaching was both theoretical and easy to understand, allowing me to grasp the concepts during the lesson! Of course, I worked on perfecting my takeoff as well!

As soon as I returned to Japan, I challenged myself on the shortboard and was able to take off right away!

I finally became a surfer. Thank you, instructor Yu-ko!!

もともと日本でショートボードを始めたのですが、テイクオフがなかなか難しくつまずいてました。日本でのレッスンはなんか抵抗もあり、ハワイでならと思い参加しました。

男性として女性だけのインストラクターでどうかな？と思いましたが、なかなかフレンドリーな感じで雰囲気もよかったです。
インストラクターはもちろん美女でした（笑）
レッスンも私のレベルにあった教え方をして頂き、理論的かつ分かりやすい教え方で納得しながらレッスンできました！
もちろん、テイクオフも完璧になるまでに！

早速、日本へ帰ってきてからショートでチャレンジも、すぐにテイクオフできました！

やっとサーファーになれました、

I went with my two sisters in late March. My sister and I were a bit nervous since it was our first experience, but the instructor was such a nice person (and super cute!!) that all our tension disappeared.

With her assistance, all three of us were able to stand up, and we were so thrilled!! Three hours flew by in no time. It was so much fun that we immediately made a reservation for the next day. We were completely captivated by the waves in Hawaii for two days.

I definitely want to rely on Girls Who Surf again next time!!

Gotta surf when you're in Hawaii!

Reviewed by: Surfin' Steve

Learning to surf must be on just about everyone's 'must-do' list when they come to Hawaii. It was on mine because my Dad surfed in California while he was with the Marines.

I rented a board in Waikiki and went out on my own. Paddling is great exercise but I wasn't even able to stand up. I found an ad for Girls Who Surf in the Army MWR magazine and called them. At my first lesson, I was able to stand up and ride on a half dozen waves!

I went for another seven lessons over the next five months progressing from using a 12-foot board to being able to surf with a 7-foot board. I wanted to progress fast and the instructors at Girls Who Surf gave me the skills to do it.

Through Girls Who Surf, I gained confidence, strength endurance in my upper body and have improved my balance skills. My first lesson wore me out paddling for waves. Eight months later, I was able to paddle a mile to a surf-break then surf for an hour-and-a-half and still had energy to spare

It was fun! 楽しかったです！

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I participated on December 24th. Since we had never surfed before, we were a bit anxious about surfing itself and learning in English, but it was more enjoyable than we expected.
The instructor couldn't speak Japanese, but he was very kind and taught us in a way that was easy to understand. They also provided longer surfboards, so we were able to catch waves right away.
I think the instruction itself involves gestures, so it's okay if you don't understand much English, but being able to speak English would definitely enhance the experience.

Perhaps due to lack of exercise, I had muscle soreness starting the next day.
However, if I go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to learn at Girls Who Surf.

　12月24日に参加しました。私たちは今までにサーフィンをしたことがなかったので、サーフィン自体も不安でしたし、英語で習うのも少し心配でしたが、予想以上に楽しめました。
　インストラクターの方は日本語が話せませんでしたが、とても優しく、わかりやすく教えてくれました。サーフボードも長めのものを用意してくれていたので、すぐに波に乗ることができました。
　サーフィンの指導自体は身振り手振りもあるので、多少英語がわからなくても大丈夫だとは思いますが、英語は話せたほうが楽しめるとは思います。
　
　運動不足のせいか、次の日から筋肉痛になりました。
　でも、またハワイに行ったら必ずガールズ・フー・サーフで習いたいと思います。

It was so much fun! I was able to ride it even though it was my first time! 楽しかったぁ！　初めてでも乗れました♪

Reviewed by: おきゃん

My husband participated, and it seems he had a great time. There were about ten participants, including three Japanese people, ranging from a 13-year-old girl to couples.

Three staff members assisted, and after a basic explanation, they took us to the shallow waters (it's really shallow; you can stand even when you go out quite far).

He mentioned that even beginners were able to stand on the board and ride the waves. My husband, who doesn't usually exercise, talked about having muscle pain in his arms in the afternoon, but he was smiling and happily saying, "It hurts~" (laughs).

They also sold photo data on a CD as a keepsake. It costs $30, but it includes photos of my husband riding the board, which made for some really fun memories. The photos also include others who participated in the school with us, adding to the wonderful memories.

I was on a different tour, so I didn't see it directly, but my husband was captured vividly on the board, riding the waves, and then... falling off the board, which made for lively conversations about the actual experience.

Since everyone participated, it was hard to take photos of ourselves. The CD also included beautiful photos of Hawaii beyond just that day's events, so I recommend purchasing it.

参加したのは、主人だったのですが、とても楽しかったようです。13歳の女の子からカップルまで、日本人3人を含む10名ほどの参加者がいたようです。

3人のスタッフが付いてくれ、基本的な説明のあと、遠浅（ほんとに遠浅の海です。えっと思う場所まで置きに出ても足がつきます）へボードを持っていきます。

初心者でもボードに立ち、波に乗ることができたとのことでした。日ごろ運動をしない主人は、午後から筋肉痛で腕が痛いと話していましたが、ニコニコと嬉しそうに「いたい~」と話していました（笑）

また、想い出になる写真のデータをCDで販売していました。30ドルとなりますが、主人がボードに乗っている姿を連写してくれている写真などが含まれているので、とても楽しい想い出の写真になりました。写真には、一緒にスクールに参加した方も含まれます。これもすてきな想い出になりました。
私は、別のツアーに参加していたため、直接様子を見ていないのですが、主人がボードに乗り、波に乗り、そして・・・ボードから落ちていく姿が克明に写されいて、実際の様子に話が盛り上がりました。

参加した全員が置きに出ますので、自分たちを写真にはなかなか撮れません。CDには、当日の様子以外にもハワイの素敵な写真が入っていましたので購入をお勧めします。

We participated as a family, and everyone was able to stand up on the board on the first try! After a brief explanation of how to stand at the shop, we headed straight to the beach. Unfortunately, it seemed to be a day with no waves, so we had to try with small ones, but with the instructor's help, I was able to stand up! I had previously thought surfing wasn't for me, but my perspective has changed! My body was really close to its limits (laughs), but the instructors were fun and entertaining. I definitely want to challenge myself again next time!

However, one disappointing thing was the CD of photos sold at the end. I recommend that those who wish to purchase it check all the photos before buying! There might be cases where it features specific people, and you might not be in any of them.

It was a morning course, but after it ended, I went shopping and made the most of my day. I highly recommend it. However, the next day my arms were sore from the muscle strain, and I cut the soles of my feet on coral, which was tough.

Reviewed by: ハイディ

First, I was taught how to paddle and stand in the shop. Although I could hardly understand Japanese, they taught me multiple times until I understood, so I didn't have any trouble at all.

When we started the lesson in the ocean, I was initially scared of the big rocks and coral and couldn't stand up, but I was able to ride the waves quickly once I calmed down. The coaches were really funny, and while we were waiting for the waves, they chatted a lot, which made it really enjoyable. They encouraged me many times, which motivated me to keep going even when my body was tired!

I definitely want to go again!

最初にショップの中でパドリングや立ち方を教えてもらいました。日本語がほとんど通じなかったのですが、理解できるまで何度も教えてくれたので、全然困らなかったです。
海でレッスンを開始して、最初は大きな岩やサンゴが怖くて立てなかったのですが、落ち着いてやればすぐに乗れるようになりました。コーチ達は本当に面白い人たちで、波を待っている間もいっぱいしゃべってくれてほんとに楽しかったし、何度も励ましてくれてやる気を起こさせてくれるので、体が疲れていても最後までがんばれました！

Before heading to the sea, I was taught how to stand on the board inside the shop. The instructor taught me in broken Japanese, but once we got into the water, the instructor spoke only English except for a few phrases like "paddle," "stand," "come here," and "danger." I don't understand English at all, so even if I had questions or things I wanted to know, I couldn't get my point across, which made me anxious in the water.

I had surfed once in Japan just for fun, so I could manage somewhat without starting from scratch, but my companion was a complete beginner and not very athletic, so they struggled with paddling. I felt like we were left to fend for ourselves, and I don't think it was a very good school.

There were about four instructors in the water (with many students), and one of the Black instructors was particularly strict, to the point of being harsh. He would push his board towards students in front of him without any concern, which could have caused serious accidents.

I think it would be tough for someone with no surfing experience and no understanding of English.

海に向かう前に、店内でボードに立つ立ち方を教わりました。その先生は日本語（カタコト）で教えてくれましたが、
海に入ってからの先生は、日本語は全く理解できず、「こいで」「立って」「こっち来て」「危ない」以外は全て英語でした。
私は英語が全くダメなので、わからない事や、聞きたい事があっても理解してもらえず、海の中では不安でした。

サーフィンは日本で１回遊び程度にやった事があるので、いちから教えてもらわなくてもそれなりにできましたが、私の連れは全く初めてで運動もできる方ではなかったので、パドリングもうまくできなかったのですが、放置されたり、あまりいいスクールではないかなと思います。

海の中の先生は４人くらいいましたが（生徒はいっぱい）、そのうちの黒人の先生は特に厳しいというか、ひどかったです。前に生徒がいるのにそこに向かって平気でボードを押されたりして、ぶつかったら一大事なのに。。。

サーフィンの経験が全くなく、英語も全くわからない方は厳しいと思います。

We gathered at the school office and practiced how to stand on a surfboard. After that, we each took two surfboards and walked across the street to the beach, immediately getting into the water and following the instructor. As someone who doesn't exercise much, I was already exhausted by this point. I desperately followed the instructor's commands of "Paddle!" and "Stand up!" By the end of the day, all participants were able to stand on their boards. It felt truly refreshing to glide through the wind. I'm really glad I participated. One downside was that the ocean floor was covered in rocks and corals. When I got back to the hotel and looked at my feet, I found many scrapes and was bleeding. (laughs) I think it would be good to take some precautions for that.

スクール事務所に集合して、簡単にサーフボードの上にどうやって立つのかを練習後、二人で2枚づつサーフボードを持って道を渡ってビーチまで歩き、即水に入って先生の後についてこいでいきます。運動不足の私はこのあたりで既にへとへとでした。先生の「こいで！」「立って！」の声にあわせて、後は必死。その日の参加者はすぐに全員板の上に立つことができました。風を切って進むときは本当に爽快です。本当に参加してよかったです。一つだけ、難点は、海の底が岩？サンゴ？だらけでした。ホテルに帰って足を見たらたくさんの擦り傷から流血していました。（笑）何か対策をしてゆくと良いと思います。

As expected of Hawaii! さすがハワイ！

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

Since the children participated, my child was in a private session while I was in a semi-private session, with two instructors for the three of us. We booked a full three hours, but unlike surfing in Japan, the waves kept coming, and in the end, we could only last an hour and a half. It felt quite wasteful. Perhaps because we were experienced, the briefing on land was shorter? The kids were able to ride the waves that kept coming and seemed to feel great when praised. When I called to confirm our arrival, I received a confirmation call that evening. They asked for our weights, so I thought they would prepare boards suited for each of us, but all three of us ended up with soft tops (urethane boards). While they have buoyancy, I wonder if they might not be suitable for practice. The point is that from the yacht harbor next to the Hilton Rainbow Tower, even children can paddle out easily, so I think beginners and kids can participate without any trouble. The instructors didn't speak any Japanese, so if we had been better at English, our conversations would have flowed more, and it would have been even more enjoyable.

子供も参加したので、子供はプライベート、私はセミプライベートでの参加でしたが、インストラクター2人に私たち親子3人という形でした。たっぷり3時間予約しましたが、日本でのサーフィンとちがいどんどん波がくるので、結局1時間半しか体力が持ちませんでした。かなりもったいなかったです。経験者ということもあり、陸でのブリーフィングも短めだったのでしょうか？子供たちはどんどん来る波に乗って行き、誉められとても気分がよかったようです。到着確認の電話をしたらその晩に確認電話がありました。体重を聞かれたので、それぞれにあったボードを用意してくれるのかと思ったら、3人ともソフトップ（ウレタンボード）でした。浮力はあるのですが、練習にはならないかも？と思います。ポイントは、ヒルトンレインボータワー横のヨットハーバーから子供でも十分パドルアウトできるので、初心者、子供さんでもらくらく参加でくるとおもいます。インストラクターは日本語はまったくしゃべれないので、私たちがもっと英語ができたら会話もはずんで、もっと楽しかったでしょうね。

I had surfed a few times before with previous lessons but never with this company. My boyfriend had never surfed before. We were picked up more or less on time by the driver, driven to the surf shop, and introduced quickly to our teacher, Ivan, a lovely man who has lived in Oahu over 20 years. He gave us our gear, including two massive boards that we toted to the beach. We then had a lesson on the sand for about 15 minutes, then out to sea!
We enjoyed the surfing, though I was a bit afraid of the waves and thus Ivan toned it down until I was confident. Once I was, though, he took us out to where regulars were surfing, and we did more or less okay!
Our lesson was 2 hours long, and we are both in 8 out of 10 shape, but were both POOPED by then end - so I recommend that you keep the lesson length in mind with your own fitness!
I absoultely recommend no more than 2 or at most 3 people to an instructor so that noone holds the group back.

It was also featured in the Camp Camp Ebi-chan Hawaii book, but personally, I found it a bit disappointing. It's true that it seems anyone, even complete beginners, can stand up on the board after just one lesson. However, there was only one female Japanese staff member, which made us, who are not good at English, feel a bit anxious. Also, the location where the lesson took place had a lot of rocks and coral, and two out of four people in our group got injured... I was scared, so I made sure not to fall off the board. Since it was my first time, I’m not really sure, but is that how it usually is?

キャンキャンのエビちゃんハワイブックにも載っていましたが、、、。
私的には、少し期待外れでした。確かにどんな初心者でも1回のスクールで立てるようになるみたいです。
ただ、日本語スタッフは女性の方ひとりだけみたいで、英語が苦手な私たちとしては、不安な部分もありました。

I returned home yesterday! I had tried surfing once in Japan a long time ago, but I was worried about whether I could ride properly since it had been quite a while. However, I was able to catch a wave safely on my second try! My friend who came with me was a beginner, but they managed to stand up and seemed to get hooked right away. It was a two-hour session, so by the end, my shoulders were really sore, but I had a lot of fun.

Since there were only four of us, it felt almost like a private lesson, and the instructor taught us in such detail that I was able to ride most of the waves.

I was told, "You're already a surf girl!" and I got a bit carried away with that, so I'm simply thinking about starting surfing seriously in Japan as well. The instructor was really entertaining, and the two hours flew by!!!

ハンズ・ヒーデマン　サーフィンレッスン

I want to ride again! また乗りたい！

Reviewed by: サーフィンはまりそう

This was my first time surfing, and I was worried about whether I could stand up after just a brief explanation on the beach, but I managed to stand up on my second try. The instructor helped me catch the waves at the right moment. I think everyone in the group was able to stand on their boards. Although I thought there would be a large number of participants in the group lesson, there were only six of us, and with three instructors, it felt almost like a semi-private lesson, which was more than enough. The price was quite high, and I thought the tip was included, so I was a bit flustered when the guide mentioned at the end, "If you'd like, you can give a tip to the instructor," as I hadn’t prepared anything. I found that most surfing lessons were around the same price when I researched different tours, but I heard there are some cheaper options if you look into local information more thoroughly. Also, although it was a plan that included transportation, I felt a bit anxious because the shuttle bus took a while to arrive, but it seems like it’s better not to worry too much about it.

サーフィンは初めてで、ビーチで簡単な説明を受けただけで立てるか心配でしたが、２回目で立つことができました。先生がいい波のタイミングで後押ししてくださいます。参加していた方みなさんボードに立てていたと思います。グループレッスンで、大人数かと思いきや６人で先生が３人だったのでセミプライベートじゃなくても十分でした。料金が結構していてチップが含まれていると思っていたので、終わりにガイドの方が、「よかったら先生にチップを」と言われて用意していなかったことに少しあせりました。どのツアーで調べても大体サーフィンレッスンは同じくらいの金額でしたが、現地情報をよく調べたらもう少し安いツアーがあるそうです。あと送迎付のプランでしたが、時間の感覚がゆるいのか送迎バスがなかなかこないことに少し不安になりましたが、あまり気にしないほうがいいみたいです。

Surfing debut~! サーフィンデビュー～!

Reviewed by: デビュー

I challenged myself to surfing, which my husband was eager to try. Since it mentioned that beginners were welcome, we participated as two beginners. The instructions were also provided in Japanese, which made it easy to understand.

I was able to stand up on my first try right away. My husband took a bit longer to grasp the technique. By the end of the lesson, we were both able to stand up side by side. The two-hour lesson flew by and was simply enjoyable.

However, there were only a few photos of my husband surfing, which was disappointing for him. I think it was because the photo-taking time was shorter than the lesson. He also regrets not standing up earlier. Nevertheless, he was very satisfied and said it was a lot of fun, and he intends to try again.

主人熱望のサーフィンに挑戦しました。初心者でもいいとあったので、初心者２人で参加しました。日本語でも説明してもらえるし、わかりやすかったです。
私は、いきなり１度目で立ち上がる事ができました。主人は、しばらくコツをつかむまで時間がかかりました。レッスン終盤には、２人で平行して立ち上がれました。２時間のレッスンは、あっという間で楽しいの一言でした。
ただ、主人が期待していた撮影写真に　は主人のサーフィン姿が数枚しか写っていませんでした。恐らく、撮影時間がレッスンより短時間の為だと思います。主人も、もっと早い時間で立ち上がっていればと残念がっています。でも、とても楽しかったと満足していて、また挑戦するつもりです。
