Beginning-Anyone can do this!  It's Fun!
Beach Lesson - 3 hr dry lesson on the beach. Learn the challenge and thrill of the kitesurfing kites. This is the beginning course to this magical sport. Ages 14-70. No special strength required, mostly coordination, concepts, and motor-skills learned.  On the sand, no wetsuit needed.  This class is an achievement in itself, and will prepare you completely for the intermediate water lesson. Meet at Belmont Shore Beach Claremont Parking Lot Daily 12-3 or 3-6. Request your dates during checkout by email or by phone.   Lessons by reservation only please prepay.  You do not need a partner to book a semi-private. There is a discount if you commit to learning the sport and book Beach and Water together. This will get you up and riding, and you can then practice and come back when you are interested in the advanced lesson.

What will you learn?
You will learn how to control the kite safely, starting with smaller kites and working to progressively larger kites as your skills develop.  You will be surprised at the power of even the smallest kite.  You can't tell just by watching, but flying the kite is really fun.  You will then learn the wind window and safety and depower systems before flying the bigger kites. You learn safely under supervision,  but you will be feeling the excitement for sure.  It is more challenging and thrilling than you think.  It is definitely fun.

Is it difficult or dangerous?
Its a bit like learning to ride a bike in that nobody just does it immediately, we all have to learn with supervision, but everybody can learn it.  Learning with progressive kite sizes and line lengths really minimizes the danger; most students have no issues.  The occasional student who panics may end up with some sand in their shorts and a smile on their face.  Overall you will learn very quickly with the correct gear choices and instruction we provide.   By completing the beach course you will Achieve IKO Kiteboarder Level 1, Your IKO card will be issued.  It is great sport and an achievement to be proud of.
