The Face Behind SURFLO

Surfer, coach, ocean enthusiast – based in Weligama, sharing the ocean through personal sessions and big smiles.

Shaped by the Sea

Growing up by the ocean, Yase found his passion for surfing early on. The beach was home, the waves his playground and the sea his greatest teacher. Wanting to share that feeling, he began teaching surf ten years ago.

From Passion to Coaching

Since then he has guided surfers of every level – from first take-offs to advanced turns. As an ISA-certified instructor, his sessions are personal and tailored: private lessons, small friendly groups and spot guiding. Yase combines solid surf knowledge with his own laid-back, welcoming vibe – always with a smile and positive energy to make every lesson relaxed and enjoyable.
