Quasi autonome après 8h00 de cours à deux. Jonathan est super sympa, très patient et parle un anglais très facile à comprendre. Sécurité nickel, matériel quasi neuf. Plans d’eau magnifiques avec pour ceux qui ont de la chance tortues, dauphins etc. A recommander

I was lucky enough to have a 10h course with Jonathan in a paradisiac place, San Salvador Island in the Bahamas. He is really passionate and pedagogue. He took time to explain at every crash (we had quite a few) what we did wrong and what we should have done. We really enjoyed our time and took great pleasure in learning how to kitesurf ! I recommend to anyone who want to learn kitesurfing this school and this teacher.

Working with Johnathan, made learning very easy and fun! He was able to show me basic procedures like kite flying, safety procedures, and being able to ride in both directions, all in three lessons. He was very patient, and had a very good attitude that made it easy for me to learn quickly. Amazing equipment, loads to choose from depending on the wind, and trainee. Was very thorough, and made me feel safe, as safety was his number priority.

The instructor was very well prepared and organized. We progressed through all levels only after satisfying the instructors expectatuons. He has a high patients level and did not rush through the lessons. The scenery of Snow Bay was second to none and we basically had the entire beach to ourselves, perfect for any skill level.

I did two 4-hour sessions with Jonathan. It was very professional, responded quickly to my mails for booked, very accomodating. He picked me up at my hotel, the spot was just perfect to start with. He took his time to explain to me step by step and the different security points, he put me in confidence, very pedagogue and patient, his material was recent and adapted. A real pleasure to learn kitesurfing with Jonathan. Little more, he took pictures and video of my initiation to have beautiful memories.

I got in San Salvador, Bahamas as a complete stranger to Kiteboarding and had my first rides done before I left !! The place is wonderful! The water amazing and the environment is idyllic for learning in safe conditions. Most of all, the instructor Jonathan makes you feel safe, builds up your confidence and just knows exactly how to coach you to make you progress. I loved my experience and can't wait to go back!
