On the wind‑scoured shores of Tarifa, 3Sixty Kite School runs semi‑private lessons designed to accelerate riders who already have water time. Professional instructors supervise small groups so you can work specifically on upwind riding, direction changes and more advanced moves across freestyle, wakestyle or waveriding tracks.

THE TEACHING

Small groups, focused supervision

Courses run with a maximum of two students per monitor and access to two kite or wing sets, so instruction is highly tailored and hands‑on.

THE DISCIPLINES

Choose freestyle, wakestyle or waveriding

Participants can select the discipline they want to progress in—whether polishing tricks for freestyle, learning wakestyle moves, or honing waveriding technique under instructor guidance.

THE GOALS

From better upwind riding to advanced jumps

The curriculum targets key progression points: correcting upwind technique and direction changes for safer, more efficient riding, and coaching on advanced jumps and maneuvers for riders seeking the next level.

What the day feels like

What the three‑hour session feels like

Each day you work closely with an instructor in a semi‑private setting: concise, supervised water time focused on specific skills you want to fix or develop. The sessions are structured to let you practice and receive immediate correction so you leave each three‑hour block more confident and technically precise.
