Kitesurf Level :
Water start
This package is designed for intermediate kitesurfers who are at the waterstart or riding upwind level. Participants should already be familiar with basic kite control and comfortable in the water. If your skills are not yet at this level, you can join our Beginner Private Course to build a solid foundation before progressing to the Skills Unlocker Package.
Type of Lesson :
Private, only 1 student per instructor
This lesson is a private, 1-to-1 session, offering the most efficient and optimal way to learn kitesurfing.
Goal :
Become an independent kitesurfer
The main goal of this package is to help you become a confident and independent kitesurfer. During the sessions, we focus on perfecting your waterstart technique and refining your upwind riding skills. These are essential milestones to ensure you progress effectively and achieve a high level of proficiency.
What's next? :
Supervised Rental
After completing this package, you can continue with more Skills Unlocker sessions or switch to supervised rental to enjoy kitesurfing with extra support and guidance.

This package include

2 hours per session
Step 1: Evaluation of your level > Technique adjustment
Step 2: Water starts and riding upwind
Next: Supervised rental or additional lesson hours if needed
IKO or VDWS certification
Complete kite gear
Complete protections

Improve your kitesurfing skills with private lessons made for intermediate riders. Learn in great conditions with expert instructors, easy-to-use gear, and a focus on safety and fast progress.

The Skills Unlocker Package focuses on teaching the last steps before becoming an independent kitesurfer. Using our improved teaching techniques and extensive experience, we first identify what is blocking your progression and then work efficiently to help you overcome it quickly and smoothly.

This package is perfect for two situations:

  • - For those who have completed a beginner course and need more hours of lessons to feel safe and ready to go on their own in supervised rental.
  • - For kitesurfers who come to Lo Stagnone after getting stuck at a specific level (usually waterstart or upwind riding) in a more technical spot. With Lo Stagnone's flat, shallow water and steady winds, progression is much easier, and unlocking your skills becomes achievable.

With private lessons, you’ll get one-on-one coaching from experienced IKO or VDWS-certified instructors. We use radio headsets so you can hear tips in real-time, helping you learn quicker. Our lessons focus on making your waterstarts and upwind riding better, step by step.

We use gear that is easy to handle, like stable kites and big boards, which help you learn faster and feel more confident. Safety is our priority, and the shallow water means you can always stand up if needed. Plus, insurance is included in every package.

We won’t push you to take more lessons than you need. As soon as you can ride on your own, you can switch to supervised rental and keep practicing safely.

Customers Testimonials

Stefanie Kleemeyer.

"We came here on short notice due to wind being forecasted. They had a private lesson for the two of us, for two hours each. You get a radio and get constant help either directly or over the radio. Both of us had had two courses prior but weren’t able to perform a water start. Within the two hours with Andrea and Svenja both of us were able to do a water start and ride some meters downwind and a bit of upwind. We really enjoyed the experience and will definitely come back for more."

"Andrea and Svenja are really super nice people! Svenja got me back on the water after a short time following my two-year absence from kitesurfing. She was highly motivating, extremely positive and always totally focussed on safety. I observed a few dicey situations in the lagoon involving surfers from other schools, but thanks to her I never felt unsafe at any time in the water. At such a perfect but therefore also popular spot, to me this is extremely important so that everyone can have fun and no accidents happen. They also gave me some great tips for the rest of my holiday in Sicily. Thank you again! I hope to come back soon. If so, I will definitely be back here at Kite Me Up!"

Stefanie Candela.

"Just finished 5 classes with Andrea and Svenya and proud to say I can now kitesurf!! I had 0 experience and even managed to go upwind 🏄‍♀️💨 They both made me feel super welcome, always there for questions over WhatsApp, always flexible and best of all: patient. I never felt any pressure thanks to their enthusiasm and kind hearts. I will never change kite school when coming to Sicily - Kite Me Up is a keeper 🙌🏻"

FAQs

If, for example, I choose a 9 hours package and I end up doing 6 hours and a half of lessons, how much will I pay?
We never charge our clients for hours they didn't spend learning and our hours can even be fractionalized. If you end up doing fewer hours than planned, maybe because you are learning faster than expected, we calculate the hourly rate that corresponds to the offer you can get, and multiply by the amount of hours that you actually did (in this case, for 6 hours and a half, we multiply by 6,5)
If I can't complete my hours due to weather conditions, am I loosing my hours?
What is included in the package?
What should I bring with me for my kitesurfing lesson?
