Struggling With Your Pop Up? 

YOU’RE NOT THE ONLY ONE

And the good news is you’re in the right place.

Does this sound like you?

  • You pull off waves you could have caught because you hesitate knowing that you might not nail your pop up in that critical moment.

  • Your pop up feels clunky, inconsistent, or just plain awkward, even on good days.

  • You’ve watched YouTube tutorials, tried different techniques, but nothing seems to stick.

  • You’ve been told “just do it faster” or “practice more,” but that advice doesn’t help your body move any better.

  • You want to surf with more confidence, flow, and ease but by the time you've popped up, you've missed the best section of the wave and have ended up in the whitewash.

You’re Not Alone

So many surfers feel this way, whether they’re just starting out or have been in the water for years. The truth is your pop up sets the tone for your entire ride and when it doesn’t feel quite right, everything else becomes harder too.

But that doesn’t mean there’s something wrong with you.

We believe your body is not the problem, it’s the guide. Every body can surf, we just need to figure out what works for your body and what it can do. This course is here to help you tune into your body, work with your nervous system, and find a pop up style that supports your surfing goals, not what someone else thinks you should be aiming for.

We’ve worked with surfers of all experience levels, body types, and learning styles. Many arrived feeling frustrated and unsure. But with just a few key shifts they started surfing with more flow, strength, and self-trust.

Wherever you’re at, your progress matters. You deserve tools that meet you there, and help you move toward the kind of surfing you want to be doing.

ENROL NOW

In Just a Few Weeks, You Could


  • Feel calm, clear, and ready every time you paddle for a wave

  • Move through your pop up with ease—no more second-guessing, no more scrambling, more time to focus on where you're heading along the wave

  • Catch more waves and surf with the flow, power, and confidence you've been working towards

You don’t need to be stronger, faster, or more “advanced.” 

You just need a pop up technique that truly works for you and a way of practising that supports your body and nervous system along the way.

We’ll guide you step by step so you can build a pop up that feels stable, repeatable, and yours. Because when your pop up works, your whole surf experience can shift with less stress, more joy, and more waves under your feet.

Whether you’re still figuring out the best technique for your body or looking to refine your take-off for better flow, this course will guide you step by step toward a more confident surf experience.

You’ll learn how to:

Who it’s for:

This course is perfect for surfers of all levels who want their pop-up to feel strong, smooth, and repeatable (because let's face it - consistency is king). This is especially those who’ve felt stuck, frustrated, or like maybe their body just wasn’t built for surfing.

We deeply believe surfing is for every body and we’ll help you find the way your body moves best.

What You’ll Learn Inside

Perfect Your Pop Up

We’ll walk you through every step of building a smoother, stronger, more confident take-off so you can feel grounded in your body and ready for the waves ahead.

MODULE 1

Build a Foundation That Works for You

Learn how to align your training with your body, mind, and surf goals so every drill has a purpose and every session supports your progress.

  • We'll dive into what it is you really want from your surfing, because everyone wants something so different which changes what information is relevant to you.

  • We'll discuss the three foundations you need to work with to improve your surfing - your body, mind, and nervous system.

You’ll finish this module with a clear goal that aligns with your body and how you dream of surfing.

MODULE 2

Master the Technique 

Break your pop up down into clear, manageable steps so it feels consistent, powerful, and personalised so you're not left hoping it works in a critical moment.

  • Practice different styles and choose the one that works best for your body

  • Learn how to place your hands, knees, and feet for a stable, efficient take-off

  • Understand the common mistakes that hold surfers back—and how to avoid them

  • Explore longboard and shortboard-specific options, so you can adjust for the board you ride most

You’ll finish this module knowing exactly how to pop up in a way that feels strong, stable, and repeatable.

MODULE 3

Strengthen, Stretch, and Surf With Ease

Train the muscles, mobility, and nervous system support needed to make your pop-up feel natural, even under pressure.

  • Improve flexibility and strength with targeted yoga flows and surf-specific movement

  • Learn exercises to strengthen your core, upper body, and legs without needing a gym or any special equipment

  • Explore how wave selection and nervous system regulation can dramatically improve your take-off

You’ll finish this module with a set of physical and mental tools to support consistent, confident pop ups—both in and out of the water.

NICE TO MEET YOU

I'm Becks, the founder of Honu Honi Surf Camp

I’ve been teaching people to surf for over a decade and no matter someone’s age, body, or background, there’s one thing that makes the biggest difference in the water: their confidence in their pop up.

I’ve coached hundreds of surfers who felt frustrated, stuck, or unsure if their body was 'built for surfing' because someone has told them that it has to look a certain way to be right. I’ve watched the transformation that happens when they find a pop up style that actually works for them and supports their body, their nervous system, and their unique goals in the water. It's magical!

We created our Perfect Your Pop Up Course because we wanted to give people a way to feel strong, capable, and at home in their surfing without needing to rely on constant in-person coaching or good surf conditions. Also because we could easily fill a couple of whole lessons on the beach just chatting through the nuances of the pop up, and we want more in-water time than that! 

At Honu Honi Surf Camp, we believe surfing is for every person, it's just a matter of figuring out how to make it work for you. This course is an extension of that philosophy, and we can’t wait to support you through it.

"Starting out, my pop ups were more down than up! Becks took the time to work with me to figure out the best way for me to adapt my pop up that worked for me."

- Eliza Blackstock

"There was a great balance between theory, training exercises, and just surfing to have fun."

- Anne Gallagher

"It improved my surfing skills but also my knowledge and understating of the ocean."

- Dave Kelly

What Makes Perfect Your Pop Up Different...

  • Unlike other surf courses, we don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all technique. We teach body-aware, nervous system-informed methods that help you build a pop up that actually works for you.

  • You’ll get real options, supportive coaching, and tools to practise at home so you can feel strong, confident, and ready in the surf, no matter your background or limitations.
