Surf Better.
Feel Like Yourself

Slower to your feet. Less explosive off the bottom. The timing that used to be automatic now costs you, and you feel it on every wave.

You're fit enough. But power drops off earlier than it should, and you feel it in your back, shoulders, neck before the session should be over.

You're coming in earlier. The conditions you used to thrive in now feel harder to manage. More effort, less stoke. And you want that back.

Ben is a registered physiotherapist, pro surfer and high performance surf coach. He understands your body and he understands surfing, because he lives both every day.

No pressure. Talk through where your surfing is at and what might actually help.

The complete surf performance program. Built around your pop-up, paddle, and time in the water.

Direct work with Ben on your movement, strength and surf mechanics.

Rehab consult or strength and performance session with Ben, tailored to your specific situation.

"Ben is incredible, a revelation !! Returning to the sport after a solid break, my body didn't want to do what my mind recalled. We're incredibly lucky to have Ben, not only is he a super nice human, he's that perfect person that knows exactly what you're putting your body through (surfing chops) but the Physiotherapy foundation, to put a program together that's adaptable and produces results. My pop is getting back into shape, and we're moving onto other areas. More-so, he's insights helped me in my day to day. I'm blown away with Ben, and if you feel reluctant to run a course on Zoom, or one on one's, all I can say is he's incredible, he's got your back. Thanks Ben, legend."

"Whether you're an older surfer like myself who found themselves struggling to get to their feet after time out of the water, or someone rehabbing from injury, Ben's pop up rehab program is a game changer .... From the initial assessment through to the fortnightly zoom calls, Ben sets out a custom program to suit the individual. I found the program well structured, very rewarding and loved the challenges of the exercises provided by Ben . After the program is finished, Ben also provides you with an exercise program and continued access to his site . For me the program was life changing and I'd thoroughly recommend the program to anyone wanting to get their stoke back ."

"I have been working with Ben for a few months now, and his program is excellent. As an older surfer who had spent many years out of the water, my mobility and muscle memory had faded. Through Ben's guidance, I am now on my way back to where I want to be. I would highly recommend Ben's Pop-Up Rehab program to anyone looking to improve one of the most important skills a surfer needs."

"Ben has been helping me immensely deal with some long-term technique popup issues from a long-ago injury. I'm now on track, mixing targeted mobility and strengthening work with technique adjustments. Teaching an old dog new tricks, reworking my popup 50+ years into my surfing journey! Progress is real and its showing in the water, the fact that Ben is a physio and surfer gives him fundamental insight in where I was going wrong and he knew exactly the journey I had to go on. I'm 4 months in and stoked at progress, I'm dealing with an old injury from 40years ago, so can't expect this to be quick. I'm in for the long haul. With Ben at my side and I'm confident we are on the right path...."

"I recently completed Ben's pop-up rehab course and feel like I have made big progress. I am in my fifties with some lower back issues. Trying to learn to surf for the first time at this stage seemed like a bit of tall order. I figured that to maximise my chances of success in the water I needed to work on the strength, flexibility and pop-up technique on land first. This course has turned out to be perfect for this. In Ben you have the combo of deep surfing and physio knowledge - this means he could really tailor the course to my specific needs. Ben is a great guy and a natural coach - always taking time to explain everything clearly and offering lots of encouragement along the way. I'd definitely recommend."

"My pop up technique, flexibility and strength has improved greatly since starting Ben's Pop-Up Rehab program. Ben's expert knowledge as surfer and physio enabled him to modify the program to my capability. I could not have received such bespoke attention through any other program. At first I was unsure if the online sessions would work as well as in-person, but found it worked very well. Ben observed my movement and ensured I understood the exercises. I recommend working with Ben to improve your pop-up and surfing strength."

"I have just completed the 'Pop-up rehab' program run by Ben Considine. After a detailed assessment of my pop-up technique, Ben tailored an exercise plan. Each exercise was chosen to address specific technique issues. Ben explained the rationale and stepped me through each exercise. In the following sessions, he re-assessed each exercise and re-developed the plan according to my needs. Ben is a skilled teacher. He listens, is respectful and communicates without using surf-jargon. He explained clearly what my areas for development were and what I needed to work on to address them. Despite being a limited surfer, he seemed genuinely interested in my progress and celebrated my achievements. After six weeks, I feel more confident and skilled on a board. I plan to continue to work with Ben on other aspects of surfing such as paddling and turns. Highly recommended."

"Wow! what a great programme Ben has developed. I am an older surfer (age 72) who suffered a torn rotar cuff injury in May 2025 which resulted in time out of the water. As a result when I returned to the water my paddling strength was weak and my confidence was low which caused hesitation on my take offs (6'2" board). I commenced Ben's 6 week programme in early November 2025 and now on 22 December my pop up speed and strength is nearly back to normal. I have no doubt that without having done this programme that I would have continued to struggle and my confidence/hesitation would have become worse. The Zoom meetings with Ben were very detailed and he is a great communicator. I can highly recommend him to any surfer wishing to get their pop-ups back on track!"

"Had been struggling with the pop up for a while approaching 50. Thought I knew the issues and how to get on top of them to keep surfing but after trying a few things to no avail i came across Bens program. I wish I'd found him sooner but better late than never. It was exactly what I needed and he tailored it perfectly to address my specific body mechanic issues. I now have a maintenance program moving forward to keep on top of and couldn't be happier out in the water. I'll be contacting him in the future with any other issues I have as he is all over it. If you are in the same boat as I was you need to contact him and do the program, you'll wish you had done it sooner, Cheers, Ben"

"Coming back from 18mo back injury, I wondered if I would ever get up on a board again. The first thing that goes is the ability to pop up. Believe me, I have tried all of them. Ben was just about the last roll of the dice. So, lo and behold 6 weeks later I can get up to my feet pretty much as before; along the way I have a strengthening and flex programme that will last me for life. My back is in check, I've shed a few kilos and surfing is starting to become fun again. I would really highly recommend it - to anyone who struggles with their pop-up. I'm looking forward to a few sessions in the water as well Ben. See you soon. Thanks!"

"After taking up surfing for the first time later in life I've been struggling for a few years to build the strength, mobility and flexibility I needed to get to my feet on my board (without using my knees). Ben's program, and the work and effort he put into listening to me, understanding what I wanted to achieve, and working with me to get there, was fantastic. I'd tried so many different methods and ideas, and Ben's point of difference is, as a professional surfer and a physio, he 'gets it' and has the expertise to fix it. Plus he's a lovely guy. If you want to improve - in and out of the water - I couldn't recommend Ben highly enough."

"As a 65 year old surfer who has surfed for 50 years, the body is started to show signs of wear and tear! Ben designed a tailored exercise plan for me factoring in my post-surgery surfing fitness challenge, flexibility and strength building that I can fit into my daily routine. Ben is unique in being a champion surfer as well as a physiotherapist - totally awesome and can't recommend him highly enough! Stay stoked :-)"

"Ben has been my physio for my ankle injury and general surf strength and mobility and has been amazing. My ankle has had full rehab and is back to full strength and I would highly recommend Ben as a physio for everyone including surfers."

"The step by step approach is really helpful for me and I will work on the different issues during my next surfing holiday and send new videos. It's fantastic that Ben is so enthusiastic in explaining specific things in my videos and showing movements live, this is really unique and I am very grateful!"

"Really happy with the exercise program Ben has made for me. He has worked around my existing injuries and Ive seen big improvement to my take offs and my surfing overall. Its such an advantage having to Ben change/adjust the exercises if something flares up (instead of just stopping it like I used to do). Highly recommend seeing him, particularly if you have existing injuries that is holding your surfing back."

"I have worked with Ben a couple of times and wasn't sure how doing a course remotely would go. It turned out that it worked really well. I had a lower back problem that affected my pop up and reduced my sessions in the surf. Ben listened very carefully and over a number of weeks gradually strengthened all the relevant muscles so my pop up is good again and time in the water increased dramatically. I can highly recommend Ben. He is professional, polite and knowledgeable."
