    Who is this camp for?

    Why?

    The Adult Surf Performance Camp is for surfers with an intermediate to expert level who want to spend a physically intense week and make significant progress — both technically in the water and physically out of it. It is not a standard surf camp: the programme combines high-level surf coaching, daily video analysis, professional physical preparation and nutrition guidance, all in one week at Villa Baïna in Seignosse.

    This camp is not suitable for beginners or surfers who cannot yet catch waves independently. For those profiles, the standard adult surf camp or the surf & video coaching week are more appropriate.

    This surf camp course consists of surf lessons and coaching sessions (video) as well as free surfing. It also includes sharing physical preparation principles and establishing healthy eating habits, nutritional advice and ‘healthy’ routines alongside a professional athlete.

    The coaching team

    Justin Becret — surf coaching and technical lead

    "Growing up between the forests of the Landes region and the ocean, Justin developed his love of surfing at Casernes Beach, his longtime home spot. Quickly drawn to competition, he is now part of the international elite: three French championship titles—the most recent in 2024—and a spot on the WSL professional circuit.

    Throughout his travels, he has surfed some of the most challenging spots on the planet: Pipeline and Jaws in Hawaii, Australia, Europe, and the Americas. All these experiences have shaped his style and honed his technique as he aims for the top."

    Indhy Paya — surf coaching

    "Born in the Landes region, my passion for surfing began about twenty years ago during an introductory course with Claire and Stéphane. I was quickly hooked and joined the region’s competitive teams to prepare for national and European competitions.

    It was only natural that I then turned to coaching and teaching surfing. As an instructor at the Lodge since 2020, I still take just as much pleasure in sharing this passion."

    Nanook Bellerin surf coaching

    "Originally from the Caribbean and passionate about surfing since childhood, Nanook is a former elite athlete—3rd place in the French Championship, Aquitaine Champion, and University Champion. All year round, he coaches competitors at Lou Surfou, the Seignosse surf club. For the past four years, he has joined the Natural Surf Lodge team every summer.

    His dual perspective as both a competitor and a federal judge allows him to provide precise and rigorous guidance to advanced and expert-level surfers. It is this technical expertise that he brings to participants in the Performance Surf Camps."
