* Our instructors recommend flying a trainer kite previous to taking a lesson.
Trainer Kites are smaller kites, which will teach you about the wind window and weather conditions. To fly a trainer kite, it is not necessary to have a lesson. Although it is not required to fly a trainer kite previous to taking a lesson, individuals that have flown trainer kites advance much more quickly.
*Once you have a purchased a lesson we will call you to schedule an appointment.
