ISA Surf Level 1, ISA Flat Water SUP and ISA Surf SUP classroom sessions will be held at the Prama Sanur Beach Hotel where Surf Level 2 classroom sessions will be held at Rip Curl Bali Headquarters on Sunset Road as it was done last year and The ISA Aquatic Rescue & Safety Course at Rip Curl School of Surf, Double Six Beach.
