A word from Lilly:

"My passion is all about making the lessons fun and really focusing on good technique and style development.
I think mental development is equally paramount as physical when it comes to developing into a good bodyboarder.
Ocean safety is a key component of my program, as is raising awareness of our impacts on the ocean and keeping our beaches clean. "

Lilly has over 20 years of bodyboarding knowledge as a professional bodyboarder competing on the World Tour.

"I seriously love coaching. Being a part of someone's development, seeing their joy when they achieve something difficult, it really is so satisfying! "


"My aim is to get people comfortable and confident in the surf and help them achieve their goals in the ocean and in life.
So many elements of experiences in the sea can be utilised in life: Patience, strength, going with the flow, riding the highs and lows, remaining calm in the face of danger.

I’ll be sharing all my bodyboarding knowledge and ocean experiences and hope to inspire people to love and appreciate the ocean like I do. "
