If you're serious about learning kiteboarding, New Wave Kiteboarding is the place to go! Top quality instruction and equipment with a perfect and safe area to learn out on flat-water. James and Josh run a tight ship to ensure safety and the best learning experience you can ask for out on the water. Looking forward to getting out there again in the near future.

I found New Wave Kiteboarding due to their location at Sailfish Marina in Stuart, FL and booked a kiteboarding lesson with them ahead of a planned vacation to visit family.

I found New Wave Kiteboarding due to their location at Sailfish Marina in Stuart, FL and booked a kiteboarding lesson with them ahead of a planned vacation to visit family. Having prior kiting experience (but being out of the sport for 10+ years) I was primarily interested in accessing a safe kiting location and renting quality gear. Not only was the location and gear fantastic, but Josh and James are both great instructors. They are super chill, patient, and all around fantastic ambassadors for the sport. I'd definitely recommend New Wave Kiteboarding to anyone. Whether you're a first time newbie or an experienced rider, look no further for a quality kiteboarding school. I can't thank you guys enough for the experience. Feeling super stoked! Less

I loved learning to Kiteboard! They were super flexible when my flight got changed and I had to reschedule a little earlier than I had reserved. They took me out on a boat to a sandbar with waist-high water which made it easy to control the kite no mater which direction the wind was blowing! Nick was a patient teacher with excellent demonstration skills. They have a nice walkie-talkie in your ear... More
I loved learning to Kiteboard! They were super flexible when my flight got changed and I had to reschedule a little earlier than I had reserved. They took me out on a boat to a sandbar with waist-high water which made it easy to control the kite no mater which direction the wind was blowing! Nick was a patient teacher with excellent demonstration skills. They have a nice walkie-talkie in your ear to help you with in-the-moment tips. Nick kept things safe and fun, and considering he also teaches at a flight school, it's no wonder he's such a great teacher. Highly recommend New Wave Kiteboarding! Less

These guys are amazing! I’ve taken two lessons with them so far and I cannot say enough good about them. They use a pontoon boat to access the shallow water sand bar, which is much easier to learn on than the beach. I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend to anyone looking for kiteboarding lessons!

I Strongly recommend them for Kite boarding lessons. Take a three hour private lesson--because they have access to a place in the Bay, that has no big waves, you will really get a lot of experience and instruction packed into the lesson.

I have given Jeremy a lot of reviews on many different sites but after many sessions with him, I can tell you honestly that if it wasn't for him, I would have given up kiteboarding. It's a very tough sport to learn and even more so when you are 72 years old. I did push myself to master this but there were times when even I doubted myself and was ready to throw in the towel.

I have given Jeremy a lot of reviews on many different sites but after many sessions with him, I can tell you honestly that if it wasn't for him, I would have given up kiteboarding. It's a very tough sport to learn and even more so when you are 72 years old. I did push myself to master this but there were times when even I doubted myself and was ready to throw in the towel. So my five stars isn't just about what I learned about Kiteboarding it was for the character of Jeremy that just wouldn't let me quit. Less

Have gone to a few lessons with Jeremy. He’s been great and is a highly skilled, encouraging and patient coach. Safety with this sport is always his top concern. I enjoy kiting out in Stuart because the waves aren’t intense and the sport has challenges when learning, so removing an element makes the learning curve a bit less. We travel out by pontoon boat to the sandbars, so that you can stand practicing kite skills or body dragging but easily ride once you’re ready. Once you’re up and riding, the headset comes in handy because Jeremy can coach you through any mistakes you may be making. It’s a unique and efficient set up. Recommend to all of my friends that are trying to learn! Less

Had a great first time Kiteboarding! I would recommend this place to anyone that wants to learn in a calm safe environment. Very friendly Instuctor and truly made me feel welcomed.

Best lessons money can buy and I’ve tried everyone. You can learn in one day what will take 2/3 lessons on the beach. Don't waste your time with anyone else. Calm flat water is key for learning the fundamentals and Jeremy has access to the best spot.

Jeremy was a great instructor because he could very quickly see what you are doing wrong. Also gave some great visual images to remind you what to do
JC

I have taken lessons in multiple places and I got more out of one lesson than I did out of four or five other lessons. Jeremy is a great teacher and can very easily spot what you are doing wrong. Every other instructor I ever had could “show” the right way to do things. Only Jeremy could see what I was doing wrong

Fun, comprehensive lesson centered around learning how to kite safely. Its the place to go.

If you're looking to go from zero to hero, improve your kiting skills, or just plain shred around the ICW, New Wave Kiteboarding is the best choice around! Jeremy is a great teacher, and has the skills and years of experience to back it up.

Jeremy is great! Very patient and encouraging. Really took the time to explain the sport and what to look for and our needs if we wanted to start getting our own equipment. Would absolutely go back to continue learning.

Oliver was my instructor and he was excellent! This was a very special experience in that we took a boat out to shallow sand bars to kite. It was a new way to rig. I needed work on my water starts and with his adjustments I did finally get up!! I highly recommend taking lessons from New Wave Kiteboarding!! An excellent value as well.

First time kiteboarding in Florida so I went for a ride along to get some insight. New Wave is an awesome outfit and the location they kite at is perfect. Shallow water and the wind was great for a 9m. Highly recommend!

What a great group of guys Jeremy and his team are. I felt really comfortable and safe and had an awesome time. Before I knew it, it was time to go home. I received great instruction and it was easy to understand. I went kiteboarding and wakeboarding and can't wait to go back once I'm in town. Thank you all so much for an amazing experience. Looking forward to seeing you soon!

Jeremy and his team are great guys to learn from and this location is awesome! Big wide open water shallow enough to stand in yet safe to ride on! And Florida warm water. Thanks for 2 awesome lessons for me and my daughter. We will be back soon!

Amazing fun - even with the chilly weather factor. 15-20 knots and 54F - chilly weather made me feel at home (like in Helesinki). Brett got me up and on the board in three hours.Thank you for a super professional and motivational session!

Jeremy is a patient teacher, his focus on safety and letting me learn in a safe environment made me feel very comfortable and secure.

Billy and Jeremy were awesome teachers! They were very patient, polite and always kept encouraging me during the 2 lessons. The location they use is ideal and safe with shallow water which made learning easy. The equipment was excellent, they had a large variety of kites available.

Jeremy and Billy took our family of six from never before, to on a board in just one day. The New Wave team, handled our diverse ages (12 - 60) with such enthusiasm and skill as is rarely seen in recreation education. New Wave has an all inclusive program with fair pricing so no stress or surprises. The shallow water training program they have developed, resulted in all of us getting up on a board on our first day. I could go on about how professional and skilled they are, but at the end of the day our family came off the water with the best family adventure to date. The grins and smiles are still in place a week later. No doubt, this is the absolute best team to teach or advance your kiteboarding skills! Less

My brother, father and I had a great time learning to Kiteboard with Jeremy while on vacation in Florida. The lesson was extremely thorough with each of us ending the lesson with a firm understanding of the basics of the sport. Best of all, we all were able to get going on a board our first lesson. Great boat, great instructor, top quality equipment - would highly recommend!
