Come Learn the exiting sport of Kiteboarding the right way at Scott Harwood's Performance Training located on the Treasure Coast in Stuart, Florida. We boast some of the best all-around conditions in South Florida. Everything from super-flat water to overhead waveriding, this area is a kiteboarding and water sports mecca.

Learn from Scott Harwood, world-renowned wakeboarding and kiteboarding coach with more that 35 years on the water and over 15 years of professional coaching.
 

Scott is passionate about teaching beginners the right way, teaching the importance of safety, concepts and function. When it's time to hit the water, lessons are run in calm, shallow water. These conditions provide a comfortable and safe learning environment. Scott teaches with the support of a Personal Water Craft (PWC), giving you the greatest safety and fastest leaning curve possible. All lessons are taught  progressively—building skills from one lesson to the next.
 

 

Scott has programs to fit your needs for all levels and styles of kiteboarding, from first time beginners to seasoned pros, perfecting such skills as going up wind, boosting giant airs, or unhooked wakestyle tricks, as well as down-the-line waveriding.
