Welcome to the 2010 Velauno Summer Sessions!


8 straight years and counting of "windsurfology" higher learning with Velauno!!!



It’s getting to be that time of year again. School’s finished…The ocean mellows out and takes on a beautiful shade of turquoise… Wind’s blowing like clockwork again… You get that itch to get down to the beach and get back in the water…It’s summertime!

For us, the feeling is the same.  In fact, it’s been that way for years and only gets stronger.  Even when work has kept us busy and away from the water physically, in our hearts and spirits, we are out there flying over the surface of the water always and forevermore.

That feeling… The first run out fully planning over rolling whitecaps, alone on a perfect wave, freestyling in light winds, drag-racing with your best buddy, the early morning sesh under stormy, squally skies, the perfect late afternoon sunset cruise…Teaching your kids to pick up the sail for the first time, taking your dog out for a ride to the reef and back, watching a friend hoot and holler after pulling off their first waterstart…

These are the memories that make us come back time after time.  For this same reason, we continue to passionately teach windsurfing and share our love for what we do.  This will be the 8thconsecutive summer of Velauno Summer Sessions Kids Windsurfing Program, and we are proud to be able to provide a quality activity for our children.  Not only will they learn to windsurf, but we also try to create higher consciousness in our beach community by imparting, to everyone involved, waterman values such as self reliance, beach safety, caring for others and the environment.


The rest is up to you...
