RSJ combines focused coaching, purposeful practice, video analysis and continuous improvement to make your surfing measurably better.
01
Every session has a goal set with your coach, not just time in the water. Private sessions end with written coach notes in your portal.
02
Group sessions are capped at six surfers per coach. Privates are 1:1, 2:1 or a family, so the coach is on your wave.
03
Footage is reviewed in Kaizen Surf Lab, RSJ’s own video analysis platform: frame by frame, with the fix and your next focus.
04
Your level, session history and coach notes live in one place, so each booking builds on the last instead of starting again.
Your level, your goal and the conditions on the day set the plan for the session.
Coached in the water at your level, with the coach on your wave or working the group.
What worked and what didn’t, talked through on the beach while it is fresh.
Where footage exists, it goes through Kaizen Surf Lab for a frame-by-frame breakdown.
One or two fixes to work on, written up in your coach notes.
The next session starts from those notes, so the work compounds.

“Amazing session so much fun, great waves, coaching and a little push to get the good waves is always very appreciated 🙌🏻 happy cup very full!”
Lisa · Adult Group Session · Oct 2026
“Great lesson, hard conditions to padel out but Rubin stayed with me, making me feel safe and confident and with a few little helpful pushes I made it out back and caught some good waves”
Lisa · Adult Group Session · Oct 2026
“I had an amazing weekend of lessons with Rubin. He has incredible knowledge of the surf conditions, really positive and encouraging and gave small helpful tips that are achievable within a session. I felt like I learnt loads and he really made me believe in myself. I can’t wait for my next sessions”
Lisa · Adult Group Session · Oct 2026
“Awesome 1-1 session with Reubin. He gave me clear coaching on exactly what I need to work on.”
Jack · Single Session · Oct 2026

Side by side, so the differences are clear. There is no best one; there is the right one for you.
