JESSIE GAUDET

Jessie Gaudet (they/she) is a surf coach from Southern California with 10+ years of experience instructing a variety of folks of all different ages, sizes, and abilities. Surfing has been a central part of their life since they were a child. They were the captain of their high school surf team and since, has been surfing for pleasure around the world.

One of their deepest joys is sharing the beauty of surfing with people from all walks of life, making something that can feel intimidating, accessible and playful. They approach surf lessons with patience, thoroughness, and excitement. Just getting in the water is a win!

One of my favorite things in life is seeing the joy on someone’s face when they catch their first wave! The ocean has always been my place of healing and play, and getting to open up this world to others is one of greatest gifts to me.
