They are both high school athletes and have a lot... read more of experience with MANY different kinds instructors and both said they were amazing instructors. The kids ended up going back for privates 2 more days (would have been 3 but there was no wind!) My husband even ended up doing a private with Antek because he was so impressed. All 3 had such a great time. Our biggest regret is not doing lessons the entire week we were in Turks and Caicos. And MY biggest regret is not joining in on the fun. The staff is super friendly. Don't look anywhere else. These folks are the real deal. Also do the Mangrove Tour through Kite Provo. Mark, who is also a kiteboarding instructor, led this tour and it was FANTASTIC!

May 16, 2025RobbedPerson 🙁Absolutely gorgeous place to learn or to improve your kiting skills. At low tide it is so shallow that you can easily recover and walk to your board. ... read more This is huge as it allows you to work on water starts and speed control without constantly exhausting yourself by treading water or body dragging. The team are so kind and welcoming. I had some of the best lessons I have ever had with Mike and SJ and improved so much in a few sessions. I will be back for another week to kite at high tide!

Mark is not only a great kite-boarder and "natural" teacher, he is a great guy and genuinely enjoys watching you progress! Their process is unique.

They are also able to demonstrate for you, right there. You could not design a better location to learn and progress : perfect winds; perfect depth; flat water. Tie that with great instructors, and you not only progress quickly, but have fun doing it!

He was also very flexible, adapting the lesson plan to the conditions and to our level, which made the whole experience feel personalized rather than “one size fits all.”
Kite Provo was also great to deal with overall. They were very responsive, super honest, and straightforward about what was realistic for us to achieve. The equipment was high-quality and well maintained, which made a big difference for confidence and safety.
If you’re considering learning wingfoiling or leveling up, I can only recommend them. Huge thanks to Mati. My brother and I are leaving with real skills and a clear plan to keep improving.arsanjea

3. It was the most amazing and fun experience I’ve ever had!
I showed up with a few trials under my belt, but had never gotten up. Luckily, I was paired up with Mark as my instructor. He was extremely patient and had a great sense of humor which made every lesson a positive learning experience, with the perfect balance of professionalism and fun.
Mark was eager to share his love for kiting and knows how to get you to fly (even if you lack natural grace and finesse like me). I progressed from face planting to successful waterstarts and riding across the water. He even took some pictures and videos for me so I have proof!
I just can’t recommend Mark enough! He was so easy to get along with and enjoying his company in addition to the instruction took the experience to the highest level. I can't wait to come back!
