    The IKO is the International Kiteboarding Organization, an independent and global organization dedicated to developing and promoting safe kiteboarding worldwide; funded in November 2001.
    IKO provides a professional level of teaching standards, recognized and applied worldwide and updated all the time regarding the development and new technologies on the equipment and teaching methods.
    There are different levels for a Kitesurf Instructor and all the Kite Sisters Instructors are IKO Certified with the highest Instructor levels: IKO Level 2 Senior. Getting to this qualification requires thousands of teaching hours in different conditions, so you will be in good hands!

    At the end of every Kiteboarding Trip you will receive your own IKO Certification Card; with an worldwide validation and that will specify your current level.

    http://www.ikointl.com

    The process of learning Kiteboarding is going to depend on each particular person. Generally, a Kiteboarding course takes from 12 to 20 hours, that is recommended to split in different days, in order to get a gradual and solid progression and the necessary rest and recovery between each step of the learning.

    Having experience in other sports, such as windsurfing, wakeboarding, snowboarding, surfing, and skating, can really help in the learning, but is not completely significant. It’s possible that you have never done an action or related sport, and your Kitesurfing progress is fast and solid.

    This is mainly a technical sport, so if you dedicate the proper time, learn with a certified instructor and enjoy the process, you will become a Kiteboarder faster than you think!

    Belize spot is a spectacular place to learn Kiteboarding; all conditions are suitable for a beginner kitesurfing and making it easy to progress fast, in a really safe environment.

    Video Coaching is an incredibly effective tool that has been used during the last 20 years in the Surf Industry for high performance training.

    Our Head Instructor, certified IKO Kiteboarding Instructor and ISA Surf Coach, has adapted this surf training technique to Kiteboarding and to the Advance Coaching lessons for our Independent riders (those girls that assist to our camps that already have an advanced riding level).

    The Video Coaching enables us to show you exactly what you look like and what you need to do. It brings in line what you think you are doing, with what you are actually doing. Our Kitesurf Coach will film your kiteboarding session so that after you can together analyze the video and find all the mistakes and everything that you need to work regarding technique, attitude, body and kite position to improve and push your riding to the next level.

    There are many reason that makes learning Kiteboarding in one of our Kitesurf Trips a good decision:

    • All about kiteboarding. You will completely submerge during one week in the kitesurfing world. Our Kiteboarding Trips are focused on the sport, so you will learn kiteboarding not only during your kite lesson, but also helping, assisting and talking with other sisters about kites, experiences, tips, spots. We organize daily Theory lessons, safety clinics and talk about gear, security, spots, hazards and you need to know to become an independent and safe kiteboarder.
    • Experience. Our Team has more than 6 years teaching, traveling and coaching kitesurfing. All our instructors are certified in all the disciplines that are taught during our Camps: IKO Instructors, ISA Coaches and Yoga Teachers. We have taught and ridden in all kinds of kitesurfing spots and conditions, from light wind and big kites to strong conditions with 3 meters kites and waves.
    • Competition free and non-pressure environment. We will help you throughout the learning curve with confidence and security; even if you are beginner, intermediate or advanced, we will teach you, push you and help you adapt to your skills, background, abilities and difficulties. Every person is different so we will adapt every teaching to your best way of learning.

    Amelié. France / United States. Kite Camp Cabarete 2019 It was an amazing trip. The crew is great! The location is great! Kitesurfing lessons were great! The team organizes everything for you so you don’t have to think about anything, you just have to relax and enjoy. I have never tried yoga before and I was skeptical, but the classes with Jamie were relaxing and with the view on the ocean, what else, right? Junior and Robin were so nice and the food?!! so good!!! You have to be prepared that coming back home after this week will be difficult. Cabarete spot is perfect if you are beginner or advance. As a beginner I learnt all the safety points, I have been able to ride in the real conditions and Martin (the teacher) was really patient and helpful. Thank you everyone for everything and see you next year!

    Julie. Colorado, United States. Kite Camp Cabarete 2018 Highly recommend Kite Sisters! I attended the 2018 Cabarete camp and could not say enough good things about the trip and kite lessons! My response to all my family and friends asking about the trip is “IT WAS AMAZING!” From meeting/hanging with an awesome group of girls, yoga and kiting every day, a wonderful staff and crew, yummy food, and lots of laughs I would repeat the experience in a heart beat. For anyone who is looking to hang with an awesome group of people while traveling and kiting, Kite Sisters is perfect.

    Katie. Portland, United States. Kite Camp Cabarete 2018 Just returned from Cabarete and in the process of booking Belize for next year with the same group because this was such a fabulous experience! I was nervous to spend a week with strangers but the vibe was so great. It was lovely hanging with women ages 20-55, from all over the world, with different levels of experience, who all had commitment to learn a difficult and intimidating sport. It was such a supportive environment. Chelu was my instructor and she was extremely patient with someone who clearly is not a natural kiteboarder! Some of the women progressed much faster but we all made strides. Outside of kiting, the trip was also fabulous! 10 stars for the chef. Fresh and healthy meals all day long. Yoga every morning was lovely. The accommodations were beautiful and very safe. I can’t wait for Belize!!

    Jane. 45. Canada. Kite Camp Cabarete 2018 The Kite Sisters Camp in Cabarete was phenomenal. I had never kited before and was super stoked to try out this challenging but thrilling new sport. The instruction from the amazing, Omar, with the support of Chelu, Octavio, Liam and all the other women at the camp made the learning process really incredible. What an awesome environment these camps foster! I loved that we were all cheering on the beach for each other and nerding out every night over cocktails on what we’d figured out that day and how we’d problem-solve for the next day. Hanging out with a group of women who are all invested in learning the same thing is so magical. I met such beautiful people, this includes Chelu, who is amazingly organized, generous and kind, and the many other folks who make the camp what it is. The food was unreal, cocktails on point, accommodation was out of this world, loved yoga every morning and every other person – Junior and Annie who did so much with the accommodation and meals, and Omar, my instructor, as well as Liam who was also teaching – were all just so kind and incredible. I’ve never done a trip like this and it was really something special. I was up and riding by the end of the week and am totally hooked on this sport. Can’t wait to do another camp one day.
