Jacques Decarsin

Un grand merci à Lou pour son accueil et son aide en amont de notre arrivée. Un immense bravo également à Jacques et Pénélope pour leur grand professionnalisme et leur pédagogie lors de nos sessions de kitesurf avec mon beau-fils 15h et on tient déjà debout ! Naviguant depuis mon plus jeune âge (windsurf, caravelle, laser...) et ayant côtoyé de nombreux coachs, je peux vous assurer que ces deux-là sont de véritables pépites ! Ils sortent vraiment du lot par leur méthode et leur passion. Je recommande à 200%

Refresh course with Jacques who is a great instructor. He immediately identified the couple of things I needed a refresh on and fixed those problems by explaining in very clear terms. Very sympathetic person too. Thank you Jacques!

We had an amazing 12 days on beautiful Naxos, staying in Mikri Vigla and kitesurfing with the Thalasea Kite Center. Jacques is a fantastic teacher. I learned a lot during our lessons and, most importantly, gained much more confidence for my independent sessions. His guidance made a real difference. The whole Thalasea crew was wonderful, professional, friendly, encouraging, and always creating a great atmosphere. It was a pleasure spending our days with them. We absolutely loved our time in Mikri Vigla and would highly recommend Thalasea Kite Center to anyone looking for great kitesurfing, excellent instruction, and a genuinely welcoming crew. We’ll definitely be back! 🤙

I recommend clearly this center. Best place in the Greek island and this team is very nice, friendly and professional. Special kudo to Lou who is extremely responsive and to Jacques and Fao as teacher 👏

L’apprentissage était parfait. Les cours étaient bien décomposés. Jacques. Le moniteur m’a accompagné de tous ses compétences jusqu’à ma sortie de l’eau .

Starting kitesurfing at Naxos in this school was really the ideal experience for learning. A lot of effort is put into safety concepts, wind analysis, etc. I couldn’t have dreamed of better conditions to start and do my first waterstarts. The team is super friendly and international, with a really great atmosphere.

Thalasea Kiteboarding on Naxos is by far the best kite school we’ve ever encountered. It’s newly built, has a wonderful bar and restaurant, the newest equipment, the best location right at the beach. Additionally, the team is awesome to work with across all levels and the pricing super competitive, esp compared with other islands. Unconditional 5* recommendation!

Je suis très content de mon expérience où j’ai pu progresser de façon constante dans de bonnes conditions. L’organisation était très bonne, l’école faisant preuve de flexibilité sur les horaires des leçons.

Jacques and I have different views on teaching process and I didn’t enjoy the experience. Swimming with mouth full of water and a sub optimal walkie talkie strapped to my helmet whilst being shouted at was not ideal, especially since I had no idea what was being shouted at me due the said walkie talkies. No point in having lessons that I go into worried about my process as the idea is to ensure confidence throughout the process. Having said that, Jacques was great with son Oscar and so perhaps it was me that was at fault. The school is great, set up great and all good value. I will try again, but perhaps will master the art of kite flying first.

I can only recommend Amager Kite School. The staff is extremely friendly and competent and really focused on your progression. Furthermore is it a pleasure to be in contact with the staff, because they are not only friendly, but also very flexible and dedicated to make everything work for you. Thank you so much guys!
