Beginner course.
This course is designed for beginners who want to learn how to kitesurf or for intermediate riders who want to improve their waterstart.
This kitesurfing training offers group lessons for a maximum of 4 people with one instructor and 2 kites. You can choose between 3h per day (1 session of 3h) or 4h per day (2 sessions of 2h split by a lunch break).
In our kitesurfing lessons, a kite is shared by every two of you so you can get your strength back during the resting time and learn by watching your partner.
If the lesson can’t take place due to bad meteorological conditions, do not worry, you pay only for the lessons done. We advise those who have already done their first training to go on semi-private lessons for faster progress.
