Fantastische instructeur! Duidelijke communicatie en fijne rustige manier van les gegeven. Perfect als je goed en snel stappen wilt maken met kiten! Goed oog voor veiligheid en het daadwerkelijk begrip bijbrengen van kiten!

Dave Bisschop was mijn instructeur. De lessen van hem vond ik erg leuk en leerzaam. Stap voor stap op naar nieuwe doelen. De onderlinge interactie was direct en to the point maar wel één waar successen wel werden gevierd. Deze lessen hebben mij mede doen besluiten om mijn eigen kitegear aan te schaffen😃.

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.

I had a great experience with my kitesurf instructor Dave. His explanations were calm, clear, and always focused on safety. His teaching style gave me confidence and made me feel comfortable throughout the lessons. Highly recommended!

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!

Dave is een hele sociale instructeur met veel geduld en passie voor wat hij doet. Ik had zelf een aantal opfrislessen nodig en ik moet zeggen dat ik dankzij zijn uitleg en voorbeelden enorme sprongen heb gemaakt. Samen zochten we ook bewust de grenzen op, waardoor ik uit mijn comfortzone kwam en transities heb geleerd, maar ook downloops bij lage power voor een waterstart. Ik kite nu veel zelfverzekerder en met meer souplesse. Dank je wel, Dave!

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!
