A wingfoiler and a kitesurfer jumping side by side over the El Gouna lagoon — VIP coaching, ride with the pros

Private & VIP coaching · El Gouna, Egypt · since 2004

Your coach. Your schedule. Your lagoon.

One-to-one kitesurf and wingfoil coaching in El Gouna — with the team that trains a World Champion, wrapped in concierge service from the airport to the water.

  • 1:1 dedicated coaching
  • Coaches a World Champion
  • 4.8 / 549
  • 8 languages on the beach

More than a private lesson

At Kitepower, premium is the standard. VIP takes it higher.

Every guest here gets a maximum of 2 students per instructor and two-way helmet coaching. VIP is the next step up: one instructor, focused entirely on you, a schedule built around your goals and the daily wind — not a group timetable — and our whole operation at your service. It's not a line item. It's a programme we build for you.

01

One-to-one attention

A dedicated instructor, all session. You're on the kite or wing the whole time — the fastest way to progress, beginner or advanced.

02

Your schedule

We plan each session around your goals and the wind, using our own forecast — not a fixed class slot.

03

Concierge service

Airport transfer, gear ready and waiting, food and downtime sorted. You just ride.

Coming back after a break, or want supervised hours instead? See the Refresh course or hourly coaching — and you can always make any of them 1:1.

The conditions, planned around you

We schedule your days when the wind suits your goal.

In typical conditions, our private, gated lagoon has a first roughly 800 m teaching area that is knee-to-waist deep over sand and protected from normal surf and significant current. The active area follows the actual tide and water level. And we don't guess the wind: we read it from our own weather station, with a 16-day forecast and a live webcam. So your VIP days get planned around real numbers, not hope.

  • ~77% of days a year are rideable — measured, not claimed (2 million+ readings)
  • 300+ windy days a year, 15–25 knots, cross-onshore
  • A dedicated deeper foil zone used when conditions are suitable

Concierge

We handle everything. You just ride.

Most schools sell you hours. VIP at Kitepower is the whole experience, from the airport to the water — because we own the ecosystem around the lagoon.

  • Airport transfer with Taxi Kitepower — 30–40 minutes from Hurghada (HRG)
  • Gear planned for you — selected from 250+ kites and 50+ wings for your level and measured conditions, subject to availability
  • Official, largest Flysurfer Test Point since 2009 — ask which suitable models are available to test safely
  • Food & downtime at our SALT beach club & restaurant, right on the lagoon

VIP coaching — your questions answered

What if there's no one my weight for a semi-private lesson?

Semi-private means 2 students of similar weight share one kite. If we can't pair you with a same-weight partner, you have two options: ride private 1:1 at the private rate, or keep the semi-private price and ride 1:1 for the equivalent (shorter) water time. We tell you up front, so it's never a surprise — and you never pay more than you booked.

What is VIP coaching at Kitepower El Gouna?

VIP coaching is one-to-one (1:1) tuition built entirely around you — your own dedicated instructor, your schedule, and sessions planned around your goals and the daily wind rather than a group timetable. It works for every level, from a nervous first-timer who wants undivided attention to an advanced rider chasing a specific trick.

How is private VIP coaching different from a group lesson?

In a group lesson up to 2 students share one instructor and one kite. In VIP it's just you: one instructor, fully focused, and you're on the kite or wing the whole session — so you typically progress faster, especially for advanced skills like freestyle, hydrofoil and wave riding.

Can my partner and I each have our own coach at the same time?

Yes. For VIP couples and groups we put a dedicated instructor with each of you at the same time, on a schedule that suits everyone — so you progress together without holding each other up.

Can I get advanced freestyle, hydrofoil or wave coaching?

Yes — that's a core part of VIP. Personal coaching for freestyle, hydrofoil and wave riding is run as private one-to-one sessions with two-way helmet feedback. Our team coaches Finn Flügel, the 2025 GKA Freestyle World Champion, who trains at our home spot — the same coaching standard goes into your session.

How much does private / VIP coaching cost?

VIP is private 1:1 tuition at our private rate. A private kite course is €695 (8 h) and a private wingfoil course is €515 (5 h); ongoing private coaching by the hour starts at €90/h (kite) for longer blocks. Full add-ons like a bespoke schedule, gear concierge or extra services are tailored — message us on WhatsApp and we'll build your programme.

Do unused VIP hours expire if there's no wind?

No. Your booked hours never expire — that's our Wind Guarantee. And the wind shows up: from our own weather station, about 77% of days a year are rideable, peaking around 85% in August.

What's included with a VIP programme?

A dedicated 1:1 instructor, a schedule built around you, two-way Bluetooth helmet coaching, equipment selected from 250+ kites and 50+ wings for your level and measured conditions, an IKO/IWO record of the skills actually demonstrated, rescue support during operating hours with no guaranteed response time, and instructors who speak your language. Completing a programme does not guarantee a particular level or rental access. Equipment remains subject to availability and sessions require safe, rideable conditions. We can also arrange airport transfer and food through our own ecosystem.

Do you arrange transfer and food for VIP guests?

Yes. We can sort your airport transfer through Taxi Kitepower and look after food and downtime at our SALT beach club & restaurant, so the only thing you have to think about is riding. Tell us what you need when you enquire.

What should I wear — how cold is the water?

In summer, boardshorts or a bikini. In winter the air sits around 22 °C, so you'll want a full wetsuit (we provide it) — not boardshorts.

Ready for the full VIP experience?

Tell us your goal and your dates — we'll build your private programme. Hours never expire · 1:1 coaching · IKO/IWO record of the skills actually demonstrated. VIP slots are limited, so reserve ahead.
