We recommend the Group Courses if you would like to be with other people or the private lessons if you would like to have the instructor for you alone.
You will learn to control the kite and its power in a safe manner. Once you master the control of the kite, you will be taught how to get on the board.
We also strongly recommend the Makani Kite Camps where you will practice 4-5 hours on the water everyday during 6 days.
In the hourly based courses, you will book the exact hours you want or need. This is also what you will pay.
The kite camp is a 6 days week group course. You will practice around 4-5 hours per day. The groups will be made with other participants with similar level. The kite camps take place from fridays to wednesdays on specific dates. You can check the schedule here.
You will also do theory lessons during no wind days and excursions with the whole kite camp group.
In case there is no wind, the time will be used to do theory and explain a lot of things. Other no activities like foiing behind the boat or SUPing also will be done.

The price for the license including the VDWS Work Book is 50€.
The price for the license only is 35€.

From December to March we recommend a 5/4 or 4/3 wetsuit.
From April/ May and October/November a 3/2 wetsuit will be a good choice.
During the summer month, June to September, the temperatures will be warm enough that you won’t need a wetsuit.
Please bring a wetshirt and boardshorts and enough Sun Cream to protect you against the sun.
We recommend you to bring neoprene shoes to protect your feet, because there might be some shells in the water. If you don’t like to wear shoes in the water, you can bring some slippers for setting up your gear at the beach.
Note that if you go without shoes in the water, you might step on a shell. We recommend to walk slowly without stepping hard while walking.
