I am a beginner and never been standing on a kite board before, in just a few lessons I was able to kite surf.
Eric was a fantastic teacher who was able to provide clear instruction with the added benefit of a radio so i could hear the instructions as I was surfing.
Very friendly and knowledgeable, I highly recommend to anyway.
He was also able to provide lessons for my daughter (13).

Had a kitesurfing lesson with Eric in Mauritius and was really impressed by his honesty and professionalism.
He only gives lessons when the conditions are right, and it’s clear he truly cares about offering a good experience rather than just making money.
Highly recommended!
