Private Windsurfing Lesson

Already have some windsurfing experience, or simply want an instructor all to yourself? Then our private lessons are the perfect choice. Together with your instructor, we assess your level and determine what you need to progress to the next stage. Both on the beach and in the water, theoretical explanations are supported with hands-on practice – helping you make quick progress in windsurfing.

For private lessons, we offer not only beginner equipment but also several advanced setups. That way, we always have the right gear for your level!

Book now and choose the best! A private windsurfing lesson is ideal if you’ve never had a windsurfing lesson before, if you prefer 1-on-1 learning over a group setting, if you just want to try windsurfing once, or if you want to learn intensively and progress quickly.

Another type of lesson may be a better fit if you already know you want to follow a full course or if you prefer learning with others, such as in a group or with multiple participants.

Book your private windsurfing lesson today and enjoy an amazing time on the water with expert coaching and top-quality gear!

Frequently Asked Questions about a Windsurfing Lesson in Workum

We warmly welcome you to Soalsurf!
Please arrive 15 minutes before your lesson starts and check in with one of our staff members.
They will mark you as present and introduce you to the instructor who will give you an awesome day on the water!

Zij zetten ze op aanwezig en laten je kennis maken met de instructeur die jou een toffe dag gaat bezorgen!

You can store your clothes and belongings in a locker — please bring a padlock.
The wetsuits, harnesses, and impact vests are replaced each season and cleaned regularly.
You’re welcome to bring your own surf gear if you have it.
Once you’re dressed in your wetsuit, harness, impact vest, and helmet, you’re ready to start your kitesurfing lesson.

The lesson begins with the first steps of the IKO method.
You’ll start with a spot check and then set up the kite on the beach.
Once that’s done, you’ll learn how to launch the kite and head into the water with your instructor.

If the wind is strong enough, we’ll head onto the water with a full-size windsurf rig.
In lighter wind conditions, we use larger beginner-friendly sails and stable boards so you can still learn effectively on the water.
Our equipment is carefully selected to match your level and the wind conditions, making sure your first windsurfing experience is safe, fun, and rewarding.

Once on the water, you’ll practice controlling the sail, finding your balance, and learning how to steer.
With each step, you’ll gain more confidence and control.
You’ll learn:

  • how to hold and handle the sail

  • how to find your balance on the board

  • how to steer and turn (tacking and jibing)

  • how to get back up after falling into the water

After mastering the basics, we’ll move on to more advanced exercises like sailing upwind, using the harness, or practicing controlled turns.
Depending on your progress, you’ll start feeling the flow — cruising across the water with confidence.
Our instructors adapt the exercises to your pace, so every session is fun and challenging.

At the end of your lesson, you’ll debrief with your instructor.
You’ll receive feedback on what went well and what to focus on next time.
If desired, we can advise you on your next steps in windsurfing and help you find the right gear.
You’re always welcome to continue your windsurfing journey with us — whether you want to rent equipment, take another lesson, or just enjoy the spot!

Frequently Asked Questions about the Advanced Private Kite Lesson Friesland

In most cases, you can start kitesurfing from the age of 12, depending on your weight and ability to concentrate.
Even if you’re 101 years old and mentally fit enough, you’re still very welcome to come and kitesurf with us at Soal Surf Workum.

If you’re physically and mentally healthy, kitesurfing is easy to learn for anyone.
Your health is our top priority – do you have a medical condition or something we should be aware of? Just give us a call: +31 6 34 63 14 55

Kitesurf lessons almost always go ahead – unless there are strong winds of force 7 (very heavy wind) or complete calm (no wind).
If conditions aren’t suitable, you can easily reschedule your lesson at a time that suits you.

We offer value packages. If you book a multi-lesson package and finish earlier than the average (10–15 hours), we don’t offer a refund, but we’ll convert the remainder into store credit.
If you’re going on holiday or have lessons left, no problem – they stay valid for 12 months!
So you can simply book again when the wind is right and it fits your schedule.
