About
Shannon Ainslie
I'm a surf coach and motivational speaker with over 27 years of experience. I help surfers improve technique and confidence through online coaching, in-person training, and surf retreats.
My journey — from surviving two shark attacks to coaching surfers who've gone on to compete on the WSL and win ISA world titles — inspires others to push limits in surfing and life.
