Our Team

OUR STORY

Sean Riley founded Soul Surf School in the summer of 2009/2010 with a simple yet powerful vision – to make surfing accessible to everyone, regardless of their skill level. Sean’s passion for surfing led him to not only share the joy of teaching people to surf but to also to create opportunities for young surfers in our community to gain employment in the surf school industry. Over the past 15 years, Sean has been able to employ up to 20 plus members of our local community throughout the year, and he’s proud to have developed programs that help young people in the area obtain surf coaching and lifeguarding qualifications through Soul Surf School’s initiatives. As a locally owned and family operated business, we take great pride in our strong ties to the local community, supporting schools, charities, and sporting clubs. We’re committed to delivering a service that goes above and beyond our customers’ expectations, and we can’t wait to share the stoke of surfing with you!
