About me · Wojciech Stopa

Your kitesurfing
instructor.

Hi, I’m Wojtek. I help you turn your first experience with a kite into confident, independent riding.

I’m an IKO Level 3 kitesurfing instructor. I have been teaching since 2009 and have spent over 5,000 hours coaching on the water. I offer private lessons in Polish in Sicily and Vietnam.

Meet your instructor

Clear explanations.
Careful observation.

I want to know what you can already do, what you find difficult and what you want to achieve. Everyone starts from a different point, so I adapt the exercises, equipment and pace to you and the conditions.

Kitesurfing is about understanding what you are doing: how the kite works, how to assess a spot and when to stop. I teach technique alongside safety so you can make increasingly independent decisions on the water.

I work with KiteTherapy. Here you can get to know me directly — the instructor who will help you set a goal and work towards it during your lessons.

How I teach

A clear goal. Practical feedback.
Progress at your own pace.

01 / PERSONALISATION

It starts with you

Your first time with a kite, returning after a break or improving your technique? We assess your level and choose exercises that make sense for where you are now.

02 / COMMUNICATION

Know what to work on

I use radio communication to give you feedback while you practise. I explain why a mistake happens and suggest a specific adjustment you can try straight away.

03 / UNDERSTANDING

Understand your progress

After each exercise, we discuss what worked and what to focus on next. When a closer look at your movement would help, we use recordings and video analysis.

Two destinations. One teaching approach.

Frequently asked questions

Can I start as a complete beginner?

Yes. We start with the equipment, safety procedures and kite control. I introduce each new stage once you have mastered the skills needed for the next exercises.

Can I continue after a course with another instructor?

Yes. First, we assess what you can already do and where you are struggling. We then make a plan to continue your learning or work on a specific skill.

How do I choose a destination and lesson dates?

Tell me when you can travel, your current level and what you want to achieve. We will discuss the destination and lesson plan. I confirm availability before you book.
