For surf coaches

Surf lessons booked for the right conditions, and moved when they change.

Sell privates, small-group sessions and multi-day surf camps from one link. Surfers pay ahead by card or e-transfer, sign the waiver on their phone, and a storm or a flat day reaches everyone in one tap. Free to start, CA$19 a month when you grow.

No card · 30 days of Solo free · 0% commission, ever

What eats a surf coach's week, and what Lessonluma does about it.

Conditions change overnight and your whole morning moves.

Tap Rain on the morning (it works for flat days and storms too): everyone is texted with your next open slots or a credit.

Waivers on a clipboard on a windy beach.

Surfers (or a guardian) sign a typed waiver with a medical note on their phone before the lesson, stored as a PDF.

Visitors book once and disappear.

After the third lesson Lessonluma asks for a review, and reviews show on your page with stars search engines read.

Runs itself

Reminders, rainouts and nudges, sent for you.

What your surfers actually receive, written from your real times, places and prices:

Forecast heads-upSMS to coach
Strong winds and rain likely tomorrow morning at Lawrencetown. 5 surfers booked 8-11. Tap to move or credit them all: [link]
Rain buttonSMS to surfer
Storm's in, so tomorrow's 8:00 am lesson is off. Pick Thursday 8:00 or Friday 9:30, or keep a credit: [link] – Kai Morrison Surf
ReminderSMS to surfer
Reminder: surf lesson tomorrow 8:00 am at Lawrencetown. Wetsuits provided. Reply C to cancel (free until 24 h before). – Kai

Every text names you and says how to stop. Messages about a minor always copy a parent. Promotions only go to people who said yes.

The rain button

Rained out? One tap moves everyone.

Tap Rain on a lesson, a clinic or a whole day. Everyone booked gets your next open times or a credit, and their calendar updates. For outdoor places you also get a forecast heads-up the evening before.

Questions surf coaches ask

Can I teach on river waves or lakes?

Yes. Each lesson has a place; outdoor places get the evening-before forecast check.

Do you rent boards or wetsuits?

No. Lessonluma books lessons and takes payment for them; mention what's included in each lesson's description.

Can I run multi-day camps?

Yes. Camps are one checkout for every day, with a cap and a waitlist.

Can visitors book without an account?

They can see your page and open times without one, and leave a name, email and phone to book.

What does Lessonluma cost?

Free for up to 10 active surfers (anyone booked in the last 30 days), with cards at 3.9% + CA$0.30 and e-transfer and cash free. Solo is CA$19 a month (CA$190 a year) for unlimited surfers, text reminders and the rain button, with cards at Stripe's cost. We never take a cut of a lesson.

What happens after the trial, or in the off-season?

Your first 30 days unlock Solo with no card. On day 31 you're back on Free limits unless you pick a plan, and you're never locked out of your surfers. Off-season, pause for CA$0 for up to 6 months a year: your page, surfers and credits stay live, and a new booking wakes the plan.
