I had a life changing experience learning to kite surf with Joao. He is a meticulous instructor, teaching me all aspects to of the sport. Not only did he want me to learn to kite, his first concern was for my safety but also he wanted me to make sure I understood what kiteboarding meant. To take care of and set up my own equipment were part of the course to help prepare me to be an independent rider. While working with the Kite Joao taught me not only how to get up on the board but also how to retrieve my board, how to manage the different obstacles that I would face as kiting always presents a new challenge. I feel that I am a well rounded beginner

I had spent some time learning from a friend. My instructor went through everything starting from the very beginning to make sure there were no gaps in my knowledge or skills. My last run I was able to get up and ride a short distance right four times and left twice, without losing my board or crashing my kite. I am eager to return for more lessons to improve my board skills and kite control. I felt very safe at all times. My instructor gave helpful tips when I needed them. I am very satisfied with the training I received.

Joao is an amazing instructor. Very knowledgeable, patient, safety focused and great at coaching. Despite some challenging conditions he was great at keeping me relaxed in the water and making progress. Highly recommended I would definitely use him as an instructor again.

The kite center has brandnew Duotone Kites, is very flexible and the staff is extreemly nice. My Instructor Joao Mota is top and helped me a lot to improve to controle the kite, to go better upwind and to improve my transitions. Thank you all for this unforgettable 4 days.

Foi a minha 4a vez velejando em fortim na escola do Jaguaribe, e a minha primeira vez tendo aulas com o João. Amei as aulas, os conselhos que ele deu me ajudaram a aperfeiçoar a minha transição, também, ele me ensinou a velejar de toe side e a saltar. Recomendo! Nota 10
