Claire Antonin2024-11-12 Super école ! Mathieu est vraiment au top. Tout s’est trop bien passé, hyper adaptable, à l’écoute et se mettant en 4 pour faire au mieux en fonction de nos contraintes. Je recommande Matos à 100% notamment pour les débutants. Mathieu et ses profs sont vraiment pédagogues et aident à progresser à une rapidité folle. Mention spéciale pour Anto que j’avais comme prof particulier, hyper cool. Il donne de précieux conseils et est hyper encourageant, à l’écoute, c’est le boss ! Merci à toute l’équipe Matos !!!! Caroline Helfrich2024-11-12 Je suis passée par Matos pour mon deuxième stage de kite… et je regrette de ne pas être passé par lui pour le premier !!! Tout a été parfait du début à la fin: l’organisation des cours, le spot, les tarifs, le matériel récent et technique… avec une mention spéciale à mon excellente prof: MATHILDE ! pédagogue, patiente, passionnée, souriante et très encourageante. La BEST !! Si vous pouvez prendre des cours particuliers (privés), c’est encore mieux. Allez y les yeux fermés, vous allez vous voir progresser très rapidement 🪁 Je me réjouis de revenir !!!!

Jean-Marc Duchi2024-09-05 Pour ma première session de Tiki j'ai vraiment apprécié tirer des bords et c'est tellement agréable de ne pas ressentir tous les chocs du clapot. Les conseils de Mat ont été essentiels à ma prise en main... A refaire sans aucun doute pour en profitez encore plus dans les vagues avec les sensations qui vont avec! Merci.
