* Our instructors recommend flying a trainer kite previous to taking a lesson, or after taking the Discovery lesson. to get a basic knowledge of the wind and wind window. Inquire in the shop or with your instructor about getting your training kite today.

Trainer Kites are smaller kites that will teach you about the wind window and weather conditions. To fly a trainer kite, it is not necessary to have a full private 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 during lessons.

*Once you have a purchased a lesson we will call you to schedule an appointment.
