Meet your Coach

Hi, I'm Rowan, the founder of Send It Surf Academy. I’m a proud Monaro Ngarigo man from a small town on the south-east coast of Australia.

As a professional surf coach, I’m deeply passionate about both surfing and mental health. At Send It Surf Academy, my mission is to empower individuals through surfing, not only by refining technique but also by fostering a positive, resilient mindset. I believe that mastering the mental side of surfing is just as important as developing physical skills.

I’m also a strong advocate for ocean safety and awareness, which I view as the foundation of becoming a skilled surfer. Above all, I’m committed to ensuring every participant has a fulfilling and enjoyable experience, which is reflected in my personalized teaching approach.

MY COACHING METHOD

  • OCEAN AWARENESS

    To start off, you'll learn how waves are formed, how they break, and how to identify rip currents and other important ocean conditions. This knowledge helps you make safer, more informed decisions in the water, enhancing both your confidence and your surfing skills.

  • TECHNIQUE

    Next, we focus on techniques tailored to your individual needs, helping you build the skills required for confident surfing. We believe in a personalized approach—there’s no one-size-fits-all method here. You'll receive coaching that’s specifically suited to your strengths and areas for improvement, ensuring steady progress and a stronger connection to the waves.

  • MINDSET

    If you struggle with the mental side of surfing, awareness is the key to breaking old habits and replacing them with positive, supportive ones. We’ll help you build mental resilience, tackling challenges like fear, doubt, and stress, so you can stay focused and confident both in and out of the water.
