Learn to be a Kitesurfing Instructor

Working in the watersports industry can be a rewarding experience. Whether you are looking for something to do in your Gap Year, a break from the rat race or an interesting and challenging career, teaching watersports provides this. Of all the sports out there kitesurfing is one of the most rewarding both to participate in and to teach. Add to this the ability to teach wakeboarding and waterskiing and you will have a highly appealing set of skills to offer to potential employers.

At X-Isle we have designed a 9 week programme to take you from zero ability to instructor level. You will leave the course with a set of qualifications which will enable you to find work at kitesurfing centres all over the world. The course is run at our UK training centre and also in Mombasa, Kenya, our tropical kitesurfing location.

British Kitesurfing Association Kitesurfing Instructor
Royal Yachting Association Powerboat Level 2
Royal Yachting Association First Aid
GMDSS / DSC Short Range Radio
British Waterski Federation Waterski Instructor

I was thinking of heading down to Kenya for a bit of kitesurfing, looks real nice.

Then I started to read up on Malaria, and that scared me, and I don't want to take those malaria shots, I've read they really mess up your kidneys or liver.

So I'm interested, what's your take on the Malaria in Kenya? is my fear overblown? or is there no malaria there?

I want to catch wind, not malaria

Thanks

Hey mate you dont need to worry about malaria that much at all. The onlything you need to do is take malaria tablets. lived out there for the most of my life and never got itso you will be fine!

how much is a nine week course?

in Euro, GB pound, Ozzy dollars, what ever you work in?
