THE NEXT GENERATION IN KITEBOARDING






LEADING THE WAY FOR YOUNG RIDERS



Whether you can already shred or you’re keen to get involved and try kiting for the first time, our courses and 1:1 tuition programmes have been developed to create a fun, safe and social learning environment for all levels for riders between the ages 12-16.






YOUTH FIRST TIMERS COURSE / £260



4 x 1/2 day modules in a 4 students to 1 instructor format

The full course will take students through everything they’ll need to know to become a safe and independent kiteboarder.

YOUTH 121 COACHING / £65ph


Our private lessons run 121, are available hourly and focus on the individual skills students want to progress.

Ideal for an after course confidence builder, some support if it’s been a while, or giving focused tips for people struggling to break through a learning hurdle. Teaching 121 we are able to go out of our way to help students get to the level they want to achieve.






YOUTH SUPERVISED SESSION / £45


{ £20 with own equipment }


Once our young riders have reached at least a level 2 on our specific first timers course, they’ll be ready to join a group supervised hire session in a ratio of 6 riders to 1 instructor. For 2 hours, the group will hire their own equipment to get a sense of independence with our careful supervision from a safe distance.






POSEIDON YOUTH SQUAD


Rider driven with a passion to see the youth of today walk the steps we once did, we host a young riders club every Thursday evening from 4.30 - 7pm.


Riding focused for like minded 8- 17 year old kiters and wingers who are able to ride upwind independently, we call a weekly session around the weather which will see the groms tearing up different spots under the supervision of our head coach - Chris Burke.


Whether it’s in a photo shoot, a downwinder, a coaching session, or a mini comp, The Poseidon Youth Squad is way to meet up and session with like minded and similar aged riders with a weekly agenda to improve and develop with our support.

Keeping things casual we put out a weekly Thursday evening plan in our Youth Squad whatsapp group {when the weather forecast is good}, Riders just need to book in so we know to expect them.

The cost is £10 per session, £30 with kit hire.







UNDER 12?


We never want to stop a young enthusiast who’s passionate to get into kiting, but the sport does require a certain amount of mental maturity due to the safety and technical considerations.


So, having met/discussed learning options with both child and parent, we can tailor a 1:1 program of training from any age.
