			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>1) Safety</strong> Kitesurfing can be a dangerous sport.  Taking lessons will familiarize you with the safety aspects of the sport and how your equipment works. Knowing this means a safer experience for yourself and those around you.</p>
<p><strong>2) Jumpstart your learning experience</strong><br />
Why take months to learn Kiteboarding when you can be up and riding in as quick as a few hours?  The quickest way to get on the water is to invest in Kiteboarding lessons. Kiteboarding instructors use proven teaching methods that will get you on the water in no time.</p>
<p><strong>3) Save Money</strong><br />
A Kiteboarding rig can cost anywhere from $2000 and upwards. That&#8217;s a lot of money to spend if you&#8217;re not sure this sport is for you.  Kiteboarding lessons could cost in the region of $300, which is cheap in comparison to spending $2000.</p>
<p><strong>4) Trash someone else&#8217;s gear<br />
</strong>The first few hours on a kite will give your kite a decent beating as you will be dropping it constantly. If you take lessons you get to use the school’s equipment, which means you don&#8217;t have to worry about the wear on your gear.</p>
<p><strong>5) Meet other Kiteboarders<br />
</strong>There&#8217;s nothing more intimidating than starting a new sport without knowing anyone. Kiteboarding schools are a great place to meet other beginners just like you.  Meet other Kiter’s and experienced riders then practice with them once you&#8217;re done with your lessons.</p>
<p><strong>6) Cheaper gear<br />
</strong>Most Kitesurfing schools have great info and tips on where to get your gear. So you don’t have to buy twice.</p>
<p><strong>7) Knowledge</strong><br />
Did you think you can start Kiteboarding by reading your kite manual or browsing the net? No book or site can replace one on one instruction. Kiteboarding lessons will teach you valuable knowledge such as how to rig your lines, how to self launch your kite, how to relaunch your kite, how to kite safely, how to go upwind, etc.</p>
<p><strong> </strong><strong>8 ) Learn in safe conditions</strong><br />
If you start by yourself you will have no idea what kind of conditions are safe to learn in. How would you know if the wind is too strong?  Your Kiteboarding instructor will take you to a beginner-safe beach that will make your learning experience safe and pleasant.</p>
<p><strong>9) Try out different gear</strong><br />
Most Kiteboarding shops have a huge range of Kiteboarding gear that is ready to try. Taking a Kiteboarding lesson will give you the opportunity to try a wide range of gear before you buy.</p>
<p><strong>10) Peace of mind<br />
</strong>Taking Kiteboarding lessons means a Kiteboarding instructor will be right by you for assistance.  If you have an equipment malfunction or have lost your board they will be there to help.</p>
