My name is Hericles Ribeiro, and surfing has been at the center of my life since I was a kid. I grew up on Oahu and went on to compete professionally before turning my passion into teaching. With over 10 years of experience coaching surfers of all levels—from first-timers to advanced athletes—I’ve built a teaching style that’s all about safety, progression, and confidence in the water. I’m CPR/AED certified, water safety certified, and lifeguard trained, so every session is run with professionalism and care. Whether it’s your very first wave or refining advanced maneuvers, my focus is on helping you grow as a surfer while keeping the vibe fun and local chill. Surfing changed my life, and now I get to pass that on through HERIBOYY Surf Coach LLC—where every lesson is more than just surfing, it’s about building ocean awareness, confidence, and unforgettable experiences
