Instruktor przełożył nam lekcję ze względu na zbyt duże fale jak na pierwszą lekcję, za co jestem mu niezmiernie wdzięczny. bezpieczeństwo przede wszystkim a nie ciśnienie na zyski. Brawo. Samo biuro też utrzymane w dużym pożądanie. Polecam i jeszcze raz dziękuję. Do zobaczenia!”

“Ich kann diesen Kurs nur empfehlen. Hatte mir online den Kurs gebucht, kurz danach wurde ich per WhatsApp angeschrieben und nach meinem Level gefragt. Es wird versucht passende Levels zusammen zu bringen. Da ich zeitlich nicht ganz so flexibel war, hatte ich den Bonus eine alleinige Einweisung zu bekommen. Die Instructors gehen sehr gut auf einen persönlich ein und ermöglichen es, das unbeschreibliche Gefühl auf der Welle zu haben. Meine Gruppe bestand aus 4 Teilnehmern und 2 Instructors. Die Anweisungen und Hilfen sind klar verständlich, sodass man viel lernt. Für mich war es definitiv nicht das letzte Mal :)”
