Ripstar Kite

Dave is a relaxed teacher who explains everything well and with a lot of patience. Partly because of that, I wasn't afraid to make mistakes and that gave a good feeling :). Even though there was less wind than expected, I was able to make progress, and that made me happy!

Dave is a fantastic instructor who never lets you get frustrated, even though learning to kitesurf can definitely be frustrating at times. He is incredibly positive and makes sure you learn the right technique from the very beginning. His approach is extremely encouraging, while at the same time he is always honest about where you are in your development and what you still need to work on. He also has an excellent instinct for group dynamics, which is especially valuable when you book him for a kitesurf camp. Beyond kitesurfing, Dave is simply a great person to be around. He is very open-minded, but at the same time he is also able to understand and connect with people who may naturally be less open-minded or have a different perspective. I would absolutely recommend him as an instructor and trainer. And if you are an organisation with the opportunity to hire him, you would be crazy not to.

Wendy gaf tijdens de lessen praktische voorbeelden en bij duidelijke communicatie kijkt ze hoe je leerproces is. Ze beschikt over veel kennis en zet veiligheid voorop. Ze vertelt uit eigen ervaring en bouwt rustig de stappen op zodat er veel progressie gemaakt word.

Wendy is a really nice person. I think this is important because you feel comfortable making mistakes, especially when everything is still new to you. During the lessons, there is a lot of calm and personal attention. She watches closely and explains clearly what you can improve. This helps you make progress quickly and get closer to your goals. I really enjoyed the lessons and would definitely recommend Wendy!

Hele fijne lessen gehad van Wendy! Neemt rustig de tijd, geeft positieve feedback en kijkt heel erg per les naar wat je nodig hebt. Dit zorgt ervoor dat je erg gericht lessen krijgt en ik direct verbetering zag in wat ik deed! Alles zeer positief ervaren nogmaals dank voor de lessen.

Wendy was an excellent teacher! She was very patient, supportive, and encouraging throughout the lesson. Her instructions were always clear and easy to follow, which made my first kitesurfing experience feel safe, enjoyable, and exciting. I’m absolutely stoked to learn more and can’t wait to get back on the water!

Het waren hele fijne lessen, Wendy heeft mij van het begin af aan meegenomen met alle dingen die belangrijk zijn als je gaat kiten zowel op veiligheidsgebied als praktisch. Hierdoor heb ik afgelopen week een goede basis kunnen leggen om verder op te kunnen bouwen met het kiten.

I had the privilege of having Linda as a kite instructor for both my 13 year old son and myself. Her patience, expertise, teaching skills, enthousiasm, excitement and way of helping everyone on their own level and skills was remarkable. I trusted her to teach my 13 year old without hesitation.

Een review van een 13 jarige leerling: Linda was een hele goede kite instructrice, heel aardig en geeft goede uitleg. Ze is heel duidelijk en ik voelde me heel veilig met de groep. Het kamp was heel leuk en gezellig. Leuke mensen en een goede sweer. Het eten was heel goed en de evenementen die ze organiseerden was ook echt top. Echt genoten van de leuke vakantie en tot de volgende keer.

I found the kitesurfing lessons I had with Anne in Denmark incredibly valuable! She is a very positive instructor who gives constructive feedback as well as compliments. This created a great atmosphere and gave me confidence. She was critical of what I was doing and where I could improve, while also challenging me to think for myself about how to improve. She paid close attention to safety systems and procedures and focused on building my independence, so that I could safely go out on the water on my own as soon as possible. All in all, I learned a lot in a short amount of time, and in a very enjoyable way! I would definitely recommend Anne as a kite instructor!
