Every kitesurfer in the world learns the same way: Day 1 on the beach, Day 2 in the water, Day 3 on the board. It's the standard path taught by our BKSA-qualified instructors, and most people are up and riding after all three days. Book the full course, or start at the day that matches what you can already do.
The full beginner course in one booking – 6 hours of tuition taking you from never-touched-a-kite to your first rides.
Covers all three days below for £360 – booked separately the same lessons cost £390.
Your first lesson – 2 hours on the beach. No water, no board, no experience needed.
By the end: you fly the kite confidently on land and you’re ready for the water.
Into the sea – 2 hours in the water with the kite. No board yet: today is about control.
By the end: you control the kite confidently in the sea – the board comes next.
Starting from scratch and doing Days 1 and 2 back-to-back? The Day 1 + Day 2 package saves you £10.
The day it clicks – 2 hours in the water with the board on your feet.
By the end: most people are up and riding their first metres. Everyone progresses at their own pace – your instructor tells you exactly what to work on next.
Riding "independently" means you can head out, ride upwind and come back on your own – the point where you stop needing lessons and start buying your own kit. After Day 3, most people get there with a private session or two. Want the whole journey in one booking? The Independent Rider Package includes the full course plus private tuition.
2 hours one-to-one with your instructor – the fastest way to progress, whatever your level.
The complete route from zero to independent rider – 8 hours of lessons in one package.
The goal: riding on your own – ready to buy your own kit and join us on the water.
