Ready to dive into the full kiteboarding experience?
Our Kiteboarding Progression Package includes all three essential courses—Discovery, Intermediate, and Independent Rider Course—giving you a structured and comprehensive 10-hour training (including one extra hour of coaching!) to take you from your first kite flight to riding confidently on your own!
You can choose to complete this course over 4 to 5 days, allowing for a flexible and immersive learning experience tailored to your schedule.
You should be comfortable in the water and confident in your ability to handle open water conditions. We recommend that you be able to swim at least 100 meters without stopping, tread water confidently, and submerge your head underwater without needing to cover your nose. Since kiteboarding takes place in dynamic environments, it's also important to feel at ease in waves or choppy water. If you're unsure about your swimming ability, we recommend practicing these skills beforehand to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
Our progressive training program is designed to take you from your first kiteboarding experience to becoming an Independent Rider, following the internationally recognized IKO training standards. We tailor each lesson to your pace, ensuring you fully understand and master each aspect of the practice before advancing.
While this package includes 10 hours of training, we cannot guarantee that every student will complete the entire progression within this timeframe. Kiteboarding progression depends on individual skill, comfort level, and the ability to demonstrate each step safely before moving forward. However, by booking this package, we can structure your training holistically, allocating more time where needed or moving faster through skills you grasp quickly—providing the best possible learning experience.
Our goal is to get you as close to Level 3: Independent Rider as possible. If we have time to progress beyond it, we will. If we need to take extra time to ensure your safety and confidence, we’ll adjust accordingly. The focus is on your progression and mastery of the skills at a pace that works for you.
You’ll be training with Ozone and Nobile kiteboarding equipment for the best performance and safety, while BBTalking radio headsets keep you connected with your instructor for real-time feedback in and out of the water.
Learn the fundamentals of kite control, wind theory, and safety on land. No swimming required!
Transition to the water, practice body dragging, and work toward your first water start.
Learn to ride upwind, control speed, perform transitions, self-launch, and self-rescue.

We love teaching lessons at Las Picuas, Puerto Rico, a beautiful spot with flat and shallow waters, making it an ideal learning environment for beginners. This location provides a safe and controlled setting for practicing your kiteboarding skills, helping you progress with confidence.
If you’re visiting Puerto Rico, consider staying near this beach! There are plenty of Airbnbs, hotels, and vacation rentals to choose from, making it easy to enjoy your kiteboarding experience while staying close to the action.
That said, we may need to choose a different location based on your availability and the wind and weather conditions to ensure the best learning experience for you.
The goal of this course is to prepare you to kiteboard on your own! However, this doesn’t mean your learning journey is over—there’s still plenty to refine and explore.
From here, you can focus on making your riding more effective, fun, and exciting by improving your technique, gaining confidence in different conditions, and exploring new disciplines within kiteboarding.
You have two main options for progression:
Now that you have the foundation, you can practice independently, applying what you've learned and fine-tuning your skills.
If you want to progress faster and master more advanced skills, you can train with us through personalized coaching sessions. These lessons can help you work on riding upwind more efficiently, mastering transitions, introducing jumps and basic tricks. We can also help you learn advanced self-rescue techniques which will help you gain confidence to kite in new locations with new wind and water conditions.
Wherever you decide to take your kiteboarding journey, we’re here to support your progression!
Depending on your learning speed, we may not cover all the skills in a single course. Our priority is to ensure you build strong fundamentals before advancing. We’ll guide you through the process at a pace that matches your ability, helping you become a confident and independent rider.
At the end of your course, we will certify you with IKO at the level you have demonstrated proficiency in. This ensures that if you choose to continue your training at another IKO-certified school, your certification will reflect your completed skills, allowing you to seamlessly pick up right where you left off.
Whether you take the next step immediately or later, kiteboarding is all about having fun and learning at your own speed.
