You are planning a trip to Tamarindo, So exciting! Beautiful beaches, gorgeous weather, fantastic food and of course surfing! … But, wait a minute… You have never surfed before, you are scrolling the web and thinking, should I take surf lessons in Costa Rica? Even though I have never tried it before? Is it possible to learn how to surf when you are an adult? Well, Today, I am here to tell you yes, It is possible and yes, YOU can do it too! You may think it is something to learn when you are very young, and that now is too late, but believe me is never too late, don’t get intimidated by all the cool surf pictures in magazines and don’t compare yourself with professionals, every one can surf and that includes you.
Let’s be honest, being an adult sucks. When we are talking about learning and trying new things, there’s nothing worse. Kids, on the other hand, can learn anything in five minutes, but adults have to deal with the pride, the scary feeling of actually trying something new and that feeling can stop us of having an amazing experience, having fun and learning.
When you see people surfing you tend to think they have been doing it for their whole lives, you sit there on the beach hours watching on as they got wave after wave and all you can think is how can they do it?
Well, you can do it too! No one was born knowing how to surf and by staying on the beach and not even trying it you will be missing out so much fun and benefits for your mind and body, because as adults, learning something new is extremely important for both our brain and body. When you learn something new your brain chemistry changes. It helps you learn things faster over time by stimulating neurons in the brain, more neural pathways are formed. It can boost your confidence and self-efficacy. Learning new things keeps your interest level high so you don’t get bored as easily and with surf, you will surely not be bored!!

The thought of surfing can trigger an instinctual fear that fills your body when you are doing something that could be potentially physically dangerous. This is a healthy fear, one that you should take advantage of because when you are out there in the water and you see that you can actually do it, this fear goes away, it awakens the life force within you and makes you want more.

Do not let the fear of feeling ridiculous stop you, It’s easy to fall into the trap of fear. We stop short of our dreams because we are afraid to fail, but failure is merely the option to begin again and to see what you are really capable of.
If you can get rid of that fear an immense sense of self-accomplishment and pride will take you over. Booking a beginner’s lesson with the right instructor is immensely helpful at this point, an experienced surf instructor will make you feel safe and will help you forget that you even were scared at the beginning, Surfing will help you to build up your courage and self-esteem.
