As a Florida native, I have spent the majority of my life on the ocean. I’ve always been driven towards kitesurfing, fishing, diving, free diving, snorkeling, surfing and exploring the water of the Turks & Caicos by boat. I first learned how to kiteboard at the age of 12 and have been teaching since 2012.
The people that I’ve connected with and friends I’ve made is what inspires me to continue to grow and improve KiteProvo and SUP Provo. My learning experience was very memorable and I’m grateful to be able to offer this experience to others. I won’t ever forget the excitement I had when I got my first ride. And then the overwhelming feeling of accomplishment when I had my first ‘upwind’ kiting session.
When I was learning to kiteboard 20+ years ago, the kites performed and reacted much differently than today’s kites. It’s been enjoyable to witness and use all the advances in technology as the industry continues to grow. These days, I find I enjoy foil boarding on both kites and wings the most. Kiteboarding and KiteProvo remain a big part of my life and I’m thrilled to be a part of your learning experience.

My very first experience with a kite took place on the Hel Peninsula in Poland. This is where I completed my zero-to-kitesurfer course at the Kite.pl school. From that moment on, my life changed dramatically. I became 100% absorbed and fell in love with kitesurfing. I love extreme sports; that thrill awakens a completely different person in me – ambitious and ready for action.
Sports have been present throughout my entire life; snowboarding, skiing, and windsurfing. I like to be constantly in motion and take on new challenges.
Progress in kitesurfing came quite quickly, so I decided to share this passion with others and completed the IKO level 1 instructor course.
Over the years, I worked at various schools in Poland as well as abroad (for example Zanzibar, Egypt, Dominican Republic, United States), where I constantly deepened my experience as an IKO instructor and School Manager. I am excited to now be part of the Kite Provo team in Turks and Caicos. The flat and shallow water combined with great wind conditions and weather are a perfect opportunity for students to progress at any level.

My first experience with kitesurfing was in Máncora, Peru. I went from zero to hero in the wavy Peruvian pacific ocean. After that I knew everything would be different because I would start living the life that I dreamt as a kid. Went into my first race after a year of kiting and ended up on the podium, that pushed me more on taking it serious and went to Tarifa to get my IKO certification.
From that point on I’ve been teaching around the world in places like Paracas (Peru), Limnos (Greece), Tarifa (Spain), Máncora (Peru), always having fun and good experiences with

Posted on David BobrowskyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had Jay as the instructor for my 15 year old daughter and myself and we had a great time and learned a lot. We had never done kite boarding before today and we learned enough basic controls of the kite, how to get it out of the water when we crashed it into the water and started to get up on the board. Jay was very patient even when I did not do what he said, my daughter listened so she was his favorite. If we have time we will probably do another lesson. I would highly recommend using the Kite Provo Kiteboarding school. Update: We went back to Turks and Caicos this summer and had Alan as our instructor and he was great, just refreshed us on the skills we learned last year and moved us forward. We had a great time and I do not know how to say this any better but Kite Provo Kiteboarding School is GREAT.Posted on Michael SwiatochaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great experience- SUPs were delivered on time and we used them for our entire trip.Posted on Nisha KhannaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Lovely morning with lots of wildlife, and a fantastic naturalist as guide and teacher! My daughters and I are fairly new to SUP, having only been once before, several years ago, with the same organization. The other participants cancelled at the last minute, and we had a private tour with Mark. He was absolutely the best we could possibly expect. Patient and calm, constantly keeping an eye on us to see that we felt safe, encouraging us to try and stand up where the water and wind were calm, etc. He is also very knowledgeable and caring about the marine ecosystem and sea-life. We saw lots of turtles, baby sharks, and various other creatures. We especially appreciated that he was focused on preserving the ecosystem, even at the expense of providing us with additional "thrills". He is also very honest about what he does and doesn't know. Thanks, Mark, for an exceptional experience.Posted on Andy BrijmohansinghTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Service was excellent.

Just finished a 10 lesson course (20 hrs) with Sarah Jane. Extremely satisfied, SJ has been very patient and helpful, and thanks to this I have been able to improvement considerably in all areas. Thanks also to Julie for the first lesson, also an excellent coach. And finally thanks also to Alan and the other coaches, they are a superb team for anyone who wants to improve and progress, Long Bay in Turks & Caicos is certainly one of the best places to learn and improve kitesurfing.
