Pricing
Private Lesson | $375.00 (3 hours)
These one-on-one lessons are the best way to get straight into kiting. Introductory kite lesson focuses on set up, break down of gear, safety, basic flying techniques, body dragging in the water, and the rare few may get their first ride! We always start with short lines on the beach to learn safety and self-rescue techniques before going out into the ocean. Once you’re in the water, we communicate via radio headsets.
PRIVATE LESSON FOR TWO | $562.50 (3 Hours)
Team up with a partner and learn together! This is ideal for two people who plan to kite together in the future. Learn the basics of how set up and break down the gear, how to launch and land each other, and take turns while watching each other work through the levels! Cheer and laugh while your partner takes a turn! Semi private lessons are a 1:2 ratio. One instructor for two students. The perfect honeymoon activity for the adventurous couple!
Advanced kite lessons freestyle, FOIL or surf | $299 (2 HOURS)
Learn to jump, spin, foil, or kitesurf the waves! In this lesson, you’ll spend more time riding and less time body dragging to your board! We provide the latest Naish gear, safety, guidance, and convenience! Enjoy having an instructor close by to offer guidance through your first rides on a foil, the surf, demonstrate advanced moves, retrieve your board, and keep you safe all while using two way headset radios and safety gear. Kite experience required. Levels: intermediate to advanced.

What our clients say
“Brett from Maui True North is seriously the best. I was nervous the first couple times but after that I knew I had no reason to be. Brett made sure all the gear was set perfectly and fit just right. Talked me through the set up, entry, the ride, the jumps and 360 airs, the landings and even more. I havn't had this much fun in the water in a long time. So safe and so much laughter. I want to kite every day. He really is the best, thank you so much Brett, I will highly recommend you to anyone and everyone!”
Lisa Cabrinha (Mrs. Pete Cabrinha)
“After spending years of competitive windsurfing, ski racing, playing polo and countless injuries especially my neck, I suffered from vertigo and neck pain for years. Pete and Tahiti and I have been surfing as our family sport (I’m not the best at it but probably having the most fun) which I felt my neck was getting stronger! I felt I could finally give kiting a try. So for all those out there that wondered why doesn’t Lisa kite, now you know. They say don’t have your spouse (Pete Cabrinha) teach you a new sport, so I had the best instructor with Brett! Had so many laughs as you can hear on the video! Thank you so much Brett!”
