Our amazing crew... You can't find better then these.
I am so proud of our crew. We are Faith Surf School and these amazing humans are the ones that take care of our students and give them the best experience in this amazing place. We are a team, we are family, and we are friends. We enjoy and appreciate each other which in turns makes it a wonderful place to work and share our passions. Love you my crew!!!
Our children in our place...
Our children, in our home Waikiki. Waikiki is a playground for beginners and intermediate surfers. It is the home of many professional surfers because it starts you off with the core of surf. Fun. Family. Friends. That is what bought us to this place and we are so blessed because our playground is now our office!

SURFER MAG and Micah Moniz
Our oldest son, Micah, who is also one of our awesome surf instructors landed a big clip in SURFER MAG today! Getting a shot in one of the finest mags in our country is a huge feat, being that you are competing among the Pipeline greats! This day was epic and he was in the right place at the right time...

Vertra Ad in FreeSurf Mag... My boys....
These are my men. My husband that pioneered our surf school (with my help of course!), and my 4 sons. I couldn't wait for the time where I could look at them eye to eye (unfortunately sometimes the eye rolls back into the brain!) but now, I feel sad I don't have any babies. I took this shot (and can you imagine what it would be like to take a photo of your husband and kids? I should show you the 1000 other shots that went into the trash!) But this is probably one of my favorite shots... of course. This is Hawaii. this is Waikiki. this is my family. (missing my daughter though)

Beautiful Babies
Being out in the north shore gives you another appreciation for the beauty in nature. The sand is clean and beautiful, the water is majestic, the air so pure, and the sunsets... geez, you can never get enough of it. For surfing, you can't get any closer for a crisp, beautiful shot. Now put a baby in the picture and you get heavenly perfection.... these are my heart drops.

My Roxy girl.... Dreams do come true..
When my daughter was 12, her dream was to be a Roxy girl. Well now at 19, she is traveling the world w Roxy and living the dream life! Now she is on the window at the Waikiki Quiksilver/Roxy store, on their big van, and just got a 2 page spread on freesurf magazine. It is hard to believe for me that she is really doing this and she deserves is because she has worked hard and been a great representative of Roxy. Awesome girl!

Billabong Ad in Free Surf Magazine: Moniz Boys
This is probably one of my favorite shots of my boys. Where you can look back and just see all the beauty in them as individuals and together as brothers. Of course they couldn't fight or grumble because I wasn't the one taking the shot! ha!

This is why we love what we do! :)
Hi. My family just got back from an amazing vacation in Waikiki, during which my 16 year old daughter took lessons at your school. She participated in a group lesson first and loved it so much, we set up a private lesson too. I just wanted to say thank you for giving her an incredible experience. Both instructors - Matt and and Uncle Donald - were so great. They made it so much fun and taught her a lot. She has been thrilled ever since, and can't wait to get out and surf some more. A surfer is born!Anyway, thanks again. We have told and will continue to tell everyone what a great school you have. The pictures we purchased (and posted) speak for themselves. The next time we're on the island, we'll definitely be back to see you guys. :-)~ Stephanie Burton

Little Kennedy....
Kennedy calls me "nana"... and when she is super happy, or super sad, she calls me, "Nani!" She captivates our family in every way. All my children love her to pieces and always asks when she is coming over again. In Hawaii, we call these our "hanai" kids. It is when we take in a child like our own blood. She is definitely that to us. She has a mom and daddy that love her so, but the Moniz's have inherited her by choice. :) In these pictures, she is saying, "Papa!"... that would be my hubby, Tony. She loves her Papa! He is definitely the apple of her eye.
