Private Surf Lessons

One instructor. One student. One fully focused surf experience built around your level, your goals, and your progression.

What this lesson helps students improve

For beginners

The private format removes distraction and allows every part of the lesson to adapt to the student’s pace. That usually creates more confidence, clearer understanding and a more comfortable first contact with the ocean.

For intermediate surfers

Private coaching is ideal for a focused refresher. More precise feedback can help improve timing, paddling, take-off, wave reading, positioning and overall confidence in local conditions.

The ProSurfing Method

Every Private Surf Lesson follows the ProSurfing Method, but with maximum personalization. Theory, spot selection, feedback and practice rhythm are all adapted to the student instead of the student adapting to the group.

Nuestra experiencia con Prosurfing School Maspalomas en Gran Canaria fue simplemente maravillosa. Desde el primer momento, Paul nos transmitió cercanía, profesionalidad y una energía muy positiva. Se nota cuando alguien ama lo que hace, y él lo demuestra en cada detalle. Gracias a él pudimos vivir un día de surf que llevábamos mucho tiempo esperando. Tuvo un gesto precioso al permitirnos llevar dos tablas por el precio de una, para adaptarnos a cómo iban cambiando las olas. Ese nivel de atención y flexibilidad marca la diferencia. Además, todo el equipo fue encantador, siempre atento y con una sonrisa. El primer día no hubo condiciones para surfear, pero al día siguiente Paul compensó la situación regalando la tabla y algunos pequeños detalles que nos hicieron sentir aún más cuidados. Fue un gesto que valoramos muchísimo. Sin duda, cada vez que volvamos a Gran Canaria repetiremos con él — no solo por el surf, sino por el ambiente, las conversaciones y esa sensación de estar entre amigos. Muy recomendable.

I had an amazing experience with Prosurfing School Maspalomas in Gran Canaria, and I honestly can’t recommend them enough. A special mention goes to Paul, who was incredibly kind from the very first moment. He gave us a surf day we had been dreaming about for a long time. His attitude was not just professional, but genuinely warm and welcoming — you immediately feel like part of a small surf family. He was so helpful that he let us take two boards for the price of one, so we could switch depending on how the waves evolved during the session. That level of flexibility and understanding is rare. The entire team was extremely polite and friendly, creating a relaxed and familiar atmosphere. On the first day, unfortunately, there were no waves and I couldn’t surf. The next day, Paul gave me a board for free, offered me some surf gadgets as a gift, and made sure I could fully enjoy the experience. That kind of generosity is something you don’t forget. Every time I come back to Gran Canaria, I will rent my board from him — not only to surf, but also to spend time chatting, laughing, and enjoying the true spirit of surf culture. Highly recommended

This was honestly the most perfect first surfing experience I could have imagined. It was my very first time on a surfboard, and I’m incredibly grateful that I got to experience it with this amazing surf school. My instructor, Dani, was absolutely fantastic. He guided me step by step with so much patience, calmness, and encouragement. He explained everything clearly and made me feel safe and confident in the water. Thanks to him, I managed to stand up on the board several times during my very first lesson! He didn’t just teach me how to surf, he gave me an unforgettable experience and sparked what I think is a lifelong love (and maybe a slight addiction 😄) to surfing. He was so amazing that we’re actually driving back from the north to the south across the whole island just to surf with him again! And every time we come back to Gran Canaria, we will definitely book our lesson with him. I truly can’t recommend this place enough. Thank you for such an incredible experience!
