Summary:
I have taken lessons at many surf schools around the world, and Surfnesia is definitely the best I have ever experienced. Bintang and his instructors are very very good teachers. They are patient, very knowledgeable, and really care about you having the best time. I saw many improvements in my surfing in the week that I was working with them. They are really experts, and in Bali, with the crowds, you really need an expert teacher guiding you around. I will definitely be working with them again next time I come back

Summary:
We had an amazing experience with our instructor Bintang at Padang beach. He really makes you feel comfortable and safe in the water as he gives clear instructions. My friend and I were both able to surf and had so much fun learning from him!

Summary:
Bintang was an amazing instructor. This was my first time surfing and I am a bit clumsy so I was weary but I was able to ride in 4 waves due to Bintangs thorough instructions. He made me feel safe the whole time and it was a 10000/10 experience. I am sad that I will not be staying in uluwatu longer because I want to take more lessons from Bintang!
