About Us | Pro Training Surf School Cantabria
At Protraining Surfschool, we love the sea and teaching. That’s why we’ve created a unique community where you can nurture your surfing skills and enjoy the waves to the fullest.
Who we are
We enjoy this sport so much that it’s natural for us to want to share it. That’s why we’ve specialized in teaching.
From the purest beginners to the highest competition levels, we’ve spent years developing and improving our methodology to adapt to all ages, fitness conditions, and Surf and SUP levels.
Being a small school is our philosophy because it allows us to stay true to the personal approach with our students, respect for the sea, and continue to have the ability to search for the best waves, even if it means traveling to other beaches.

We adapt to each student, always looking for solutions to your specific needs.

“Surfing is not just about catching waves, surfing is about learning to be and play in the sea.”
This is our philosophy and the foundation of our school. A very simple concept, but one that will allow you to take your first steps in the art of sliding on the waves as well as refine your technique.
Andrea Molina
Resident instructor at Protraining Surfschool.
“I discovered surfing at the age of 15, and since then, it has been the core that has shaped my life.
I started teaching surfing in Portugal more than 10 years ago, and I can say that my work is one of my passions.
The sea has provided me with a lot of joy, inspiration, adventures, and, most importantly, personal growth.
I love understanding how the body and mind work, as well as the mechanics of the sea and surfing technique.
In my lessons, I aim to transmit this maritime inspiration so that every student finds their own way to explore and enjoy the sea.”
