How do I improve this skill?

This is your goal.

After this 2-hour intro you'll know whether kitesurfing is for you. You'll understand the wind window, have flown the kite yourself and done your first body drags in Paje's lagoon, one-on-one with an Aquaholics instructor.

Is this for me?

Nothing. You don't need any prior kitesurfing experience. Being able to swim is enough.
