Zakaria Lakrati

Zak was patient, extremely good at teaching, very attentive, and highly effective. Every piece of advice was clear, precise, and well demonstrated by Zak. He is always in a good mood and made us feel comfortable from the very beginning. We were truly lucky to have an instructor like him.

C’était un vrai plaisir d’apprendre le kite avec Zakaria. Il est très pédagogue, super sympa et patient, on se sent vraiment en confiance avec lui. Il donne de très bons conseils et on ressent rapidement une progression. Je le recommande fortement si vous souhaitez apprendre le kitesurf !

I took four days of 1-on-1 kitesurf lessons with Zakharia, and from the very first moment it was an amazing experience. He is an exceptionally pleasant instructor who combines fun, adventure, safety, and his genuine passion for kitesurfing all in one. Zakharia has an impressive amount of knowledge and experience. He knows the sport inside out, understands his own skills perfectly, and has a great sense for what you need at every moment. His explanations are always clear, calm, and motivating. Thanks to him, I felt both safe and challenged, and I made progress much faster than I expected. What made this experience even more special is that Zakharia is not only a fantastic coach, but also a warm, sincere person. After the lessons he even became a good friend! If you want to learn kitesurfing from someone who is professional, passionate, and brings an incredibly positive vibe, then Zakharia is absolutely the instructor you’re looking for.

C'est un super enseignant ! J'ai commencé le kite avec Zakaria l'année dernière, puis j'ai repris des cours avec lui quand je suis retourné à Essaouira ! Très patient et pédagogue, je me suis sentie en confiance pour apprendre ce nouveau sport. Merci beaucoup !

Supers cours avec Zakaria - en plus d’être très professionnel, c’est un bon pédagogue qui prend le temps de bien tout expliquer. C’était un vrai plaisir de l’avoir en tant que professeur, j’en ressors avec des compétences solides en kitesurf et de très bons souvenirs en tête. Un grand merci et au plaisir de revenir en faire avec Zakaria à Essaouira ou ailleurs une fois prochaine !

After just 2 hours practicing on the beach and getting to know the kite, we went into the water. Although the kite was rather small, first runs on the board were already succesful. On day 2 we used a more suitable kite size and after a few tries I did some laps back and forth on the board. A few more runs, it felt more confident. I learned all the basics to be able to further development skills at my home spot. Since then I liked kiting so much, I bought some gear and started kiting. Thank you very much Zakaria for the perfect introduction!

Learned a lot and enjoyed the cool vibe of the center and the instructors!

Je recommande ++ Zackaria qui est très pédagogue, patient et extrêmement gentil ! Je n’aurai pas pu rêver mieux comme premier stage de kitesurf !

Merci beaucoup à Zakaria qui a été patient et très sympa pendant les 5 jours. J’ai adoré et nous allons continuer le Kite !
