Our 16-hour Intensive Kite Course is designed for learners who want a focused and comprehensive learning experience with more time dedicated to practice, repetition, and progression. The course follows a structured pathway from essential safety and kite control through water starts, controlled riding, upwind riding, transitions, and further skill development.

With additional coaching hours, your instructor can spend more time refining technique, correcting mistakes, and adapting the progression to your individual pace. Sessions are adjusted according to your ability, goals, and the day's wind and water conditions.

The 16-hour format provides a strong foundation for progressing towards greater independence, while recognizing that the level achieved varies according to the rider, conditions, and learning pace.
