Experience / no experience?
We are looking for instructors who have the same passion for kite surfing and can convey this well. It is nice if you have your papers in order (IKO, VDWS, Watersportverband).

BLOW
Instructor Course
What does this training mean?
The BLOW in-house course is an intensive period of 3 days in which both theory and practice are discussed and in which you work with your fellow teachers in various areas.
The mornings are mainly theoretical and the afternoons are practically arranged. The topics covered include material knowledge, meteorology, aerodynamics, wind effects, and the principles of teaching methods according to the IKO standards.
After your own kite skills are assessed by means of a demonstration, it is time for the practical lessons. Our main instructor demonstrates the teaching methods according to the IKO standards, after which the students go through the exercises together and perform the exercises. In small groups you give your first lessons to real beginners.
BLOW Course costs?
The BLOW Course is completely free! It is important to us that we always have professional and good instructors in our team. We are happy to invest in that!
BLOW Exam
Finally of the course there is a practical exam in which you will have to give a full kitesurfing lesson independently to novice kitesurfing students.
