Michele Colapinto

I am glad that I started my kitesurfing course with Michele. He has a professionally structured teaching method. He immediately recognizes what is needed for steady progress in learning. He gives useful tips on both the emotional and physical aspects. He pays special attention to safety too! I HIGHLY recommend him and hope we can catch some wind together soon!

In Sardinia, we often sat on the beach and watched the kite surfers with fascination. It didn't take long for us to make the decision: we would take a beginner's course in Sicily. We found the perfect spot for beginners and signed up for the kite surfing course. The welcome at the kite school, Adrie Kite School Sicily (Torre Loopa Kite School), was extremely friendly, and we had no complaints throughout the course and always felt well looked after. Our kite instructor, Michele Colapinto, was a real stroke of luck. He guided us through the first exercises very competently and with great dedication. We particularly appreciated that he not only pointed out our mistakes, but also patiently explained how we could improve. We could see his passion for his profession in every moment. Unfortunately, we were unable to complete the course, but we had so much fun with Michele over the three days that we will definitely continue next season. Thank you very much.

at over 60 years of age, we decided to learn how to kiteboard. After doing some research we came across one of the best kite spots for beginners in Sicily. There we were lucky to meet kite instructor Michele Colapinto. Cheerfull, fun and always motivating, he got us excited about the sport and accompanied us during the training sessions. His training was characterized by structure and excellent expertise. The individual training steps took us steadily forward without overwhelming us. Our conclusion: unfortunately we started too late. But thanks to Micheles motivation, we will start again next season and complete the training.

Great kite instructor! I took a refresher course with Michele, and thanks to him, I got back into kitesurfing confidently after a two-year break since my first lessons. He explains everything clearly, makes learning fun, and I always felt completely safe on the water.

The course with Torre Lopa was amazing. The school is super flexibel with Wind and notified me as soon as there was enough wind for the lesson. The Equipment was top. Michele is a Great instructor. He knew exactly what to tell me for progress, and where we needed to spend more time to learn certain skills. Overall my experience was amazing and I can highly recommend it.

I have never tried kitesurfing before, but Michele made it very clear and understandable in a short period of time. Focussing on learning it properly and also being able to teach it very clear in English. Now I know the basics, I will continue kitesurfing in the future! I would highly recommend Michele as an instructor, besides that, nice guy!

Michele is an expert instructor. During my lessons, he was able to teach me the fundamentals while ensuring highest security. Following his instruction I was able to progress and have fun. I’d definitely recommend him and hope to continue learning more with him .

Ho seguito una lezione di refresh sulla body drag ed è stata davvero positiva. Ottimo per riprendere sicurezza in acqua e consolidare le basi prima di tornare con la tavola. L’istruttore è stato chiaro e disponibile, rendendo la lezione utile e piacevole.

Ich kann meinen Lehrer nur in den höchsten Tönen loben. Er hat den Kitekurs zu einem unglaublichen Erlebnis gemacht! ​Von der ersten Minute an habe ich mich sehr wohl und sicher gefühlt. Er hat die Theorie nicht nur trocken heruntergerattert, sondern alles super verständlich und mit viel Praxisbezug erklärt. Das Wichtigste war für mich aber, wie er die Sicherheit immer in den Vordergrund gestellt hat, ohne dass der Spaß zu kurz kam.

I had an amazing experience learning kite surfing with Michele! As a complete beginner, I was nervous, but Michele explained everything so clearly and made me feel confident right away. His patience and encouragement turned the lesson into pure fun. Highly recommend his lessons to anyone starting out.
