First family surf experience. - Awesome instructors, the kids (9 and 11) loved it, along with myself and wife. We all said it was the highlight of our Hawaii trip. Great pics and videos as well!

Surfing with Jake. - Early morning was perfect. Jake is amazing. He taught Everyone how to “catch” a wave. Highly! Highly! recommended. Don’t miss out on the opportunity.

So Much FUN!! - Jake was awesome today with my daughter and friend. He went over the basics before getting in the water. The girls picked it right up! They loved it! It has been their favorite thing on this trip!! The photos and videos were great!

Wonderful, Fun, and Safe - Our kiddos got the blessing to learn to surf with Jake and they loved it. He helped them learn the basics, but the best part is that they got ample time to catch waves and feel the freedom of surfing on their own, while having the safety net of Jake nearby taking care of them. From a mom point of view, I was reassured immediately when I saw how good Jake was with them. Bonus points that his lovely wife Sarah was there to capture the moments so I could just enjoy watching them. Highly recommend!

Jake is the best surf teacher - I have no words! thank you jake for the surf lessons, for your patience, for the clear explanations and for the equipment when we decided to go to Honolulu, I knew that I had to put surf lessons on my to-do list and I am so happy that I chose Aloha Surf with Jake.

Great Surfing Lessons - Jake is an experienced instructor and very pleasant to work with. He helps me feel very safe in the water and knows how to read the waves to pick the best one to ride. I have had several lessons with him and they were all great experiences. I highly recommend Manifesting Aloha Surf School for your next water adventure!

The only review you need to read - As surfing is part of Hawaiis culture, I felt the need to give it a try. Totally sure 'I will never get a wafe', I chose Manifesting Aloha surf school - highly recommended by the English school I visited during my stay and other classmates. After a quick introduction we went out to the waves and the rest is history: I immediately stood the first wave and the rush you feel then is incredible. I think that was also the point when the addiction kicked in. So there was no question of booking another session with this surf school straight away. „Why booking the session with Manifesting Aloha?“ Jake is a very friendly person and a very competent teacher. You get perfect equipment - new surf boards and additional clothes if desired. The location has in my opinion better waves than Waikiki and is less crowded. He helps you not only to stand on the board but also how you can improve your technique or take the next steps (such as steering along the wave) To sum up, go for it (as Eddy would do) and the taken pictures and videos are something you will be very proud of - not only for your own video analysis but also to show off to family and friends (or instagram).

Was great - Jake is a wonderful surf instructor who does his job with a lot of passion. I felt safe at all times. I would do it again and recommend him to everyone, no matter how big/small, old/young or whatever - great!:)

Best surfing lesson ever!! - This was the BEST use of my time during a 30-hour layover! Jake was so kind and encouraging to our group, and every single one of us got up on the surf board!! Can’t wait to go again!

Amazing surfing experience and patient and knowledgeable instructor! Highly recommend! - This experience was awesome! Jake was an amazing and patient teacher! He made my friend and I feel comfortable and safe while surfing. I would recommend these lessons to newcomers and people with prior surfing experience. He had a lot of great tips on form and surfing etiquette. I also appreciated that they provided us with water shoes and rash guards. We're already planning our next lesson!! I would highly recommend taking lessons here!
