 SurfLife Surf School

Surf Lesson Short Sands Beach N Oregon C

Greetings, my name is Josh Moore, founder of SurfLife Surf School. SurfLife was born from a simple idea—aligning what I’m great at with what I love most: helping people experience the freedom and clarity that come from surfing cold water.
Out here on the North Oregon Coast, surfing isn’t a postcard fantasy—it’s a test of heart. The cold sharpens you. The cliffs humble you. The ocean resets you. That’s the SurfLife way—learning to move with nature, not against it.
With an MBA in business strategy and years spent teaching in these waters, I built SurfLife as more than a surf school. It’s a purpose-driven coastal brand built on safety, progression, and the deeper joy that comes from earning your waves.
Surfing isn’t just recreation—it’s renewal. It’s where skill meets spirit, and every session leaves you a little lighter, stronger, and more alive.
Hope to see you out there,
Josh Moore MBA 
Founder, SurfLife Surf School

 Vision

Our vision is to build a lasting cold-water surf culture on the North Oregon Coast—where surfing becomes more than a sport, but a way of life. SurfLife strives to lead by example: blending authentic ocean connection with professional coaching, sustainable growth, and community impact. We see a coast where every surfer—local or visitor—leaves more grounded, confident, and alive.
