- Location: Stuart, FL
The duration of each kiteboarding lesson is 3.5 hours dock to dock. You will meet your instructor at Sailfish Marina, together you will take a boat ride out to our flat water coaching location.

A Kiteboarding lesson consists of two things, professional demonstration, and hands-on learning.
A quick guide to our lesson process:
We will discuss and practice safety, kite setup, kite control, body dragging, water starts, board skills. progression, and etiquette.
After successfully mastering safety protocol, kite set up, and control we will move into the water to begin body dragging. Body dragging is the process of using the kite to propel you through the water in a desired direction without the use of a board. This is one of the most important stages of the kiteboarding progression process. Body dragging is a skill to help retrieve your board, or get to safety if needed.
Once you are confident with the basics, you will then learn how to perform a water start. A water start is the first step to using the kite to stand up and ride on the board. Combining all of these steps will result in short controlled rides, and the start to your kiteboarding career!
