Windsurf Lessons

---

Maui offers an incredible place to learn how to windsurf or to enhance your skills, no matter what level of ability. Alan Cadiz and his staff of HST instructors have been setting the standards in windsurfing instruction since 1985. Their instructors' high level of skill allows them to sail right next to you on the water, giving you the confidence and the coaching you need to excel quickly. Lessons are taught at Kanaha, Kihei, and from private beachfront locations along Maui's North shore. HST offers beginner through advanced, group and private lessons including jibing and wave sailing. As all lessons are by appointment only, reservations are recommended as far in advance as possible. If you have prepaid for lessons and need to reconfirm start times while on Maui, or want to add some lessons while on-site, please call Vela Maui at 800-321-7443 or HST directly at 800-YOU-JIBE (968-5423). Lessons cost $219 for 3 days of lessons, $279 for 4 days of lessons. More details on lesson plans below...

All beginners should meet at Kanaha Beach Park at 09:00 to get started on their lessons. We will bring all the beginner gear you need during you 2.5 hour group lessons.

Advanced Lessons

For anyone working on waterstarts or who has progressed during the start of the trip, you will move into the next level of instruction. Individualized, private instruction that is catered to your specific needs, whether that may be jibing, stance, footstraps, jumping, etc. These lessons cost the same but are 1.5 hours of private instruction and DO NOT INCLUDE EQUIPMENT which you will need to have rented separately.
