    Yoga & Kitesurfing Course

    Yoga and kitesurfing: The ideal combination for the perfect kitesurfing holiday.

    Yoga at Our Kite Camp

    Breathe in the fresh sea air, let your gaze wander across the Atlantic or the lagoon in the morning light, feel the harmony of breath and movement – that’s how our days begin at yoga kitesurfing camp. Under the guidance of our trained yoga teacher Viki, you will learn the various asanas of Hatha Yoga (Vinyasa Flow), and give your body the necessary rest and strength to cope with the strenuous kitesurfing days.
