Meet your Surf Coaches

Let's surf together!

Meet Dede 

Our Founder + Head Instructor 
(Certified by the Australian Academy of Surfing) 

„For me, surfing is so much more than just a sport - it’s a reflection of who we are and where we come from. When we ride waves, we fully immerse ourselves in the present moment. 

Just as in life, surfing presents us with challenges that unveil our vulnerabilities and strengths, revealing all the vibrant colors of this beautiful life. 

Every time we step into the ocean, we are not only connecting with the powerful energy of Mother Nature, but also deepening our connection to ourselves. 

Surfing invites us to experience and feel everything - from frustration to joy, from tears to laughter, creating a space where we can welcome all that life has to offer, allowing the ocean’s energy to heal and recharge us.“

​

I founded the Color of Life Surf School because I see surfing as a vibrant reflection of life itself - filled with different colors, lessons and blessings. 

Each session on the water is an opportunity to grow, feel, appreciate and share the bliss of being alive.

​

There’s nothing like the feeling of riding the wave and we are psyched to share that blessing with you,

as you explore the true spirit of surfing.
