Stephanie E.H., Montpellier, France

"Déroulement des cours de manière adaptée à mes faiblesses et très pédagogique. l'instructeur a su me motiver et travailler les cours étape par étape avec patience. Je reviendrai sans hésiter dans cette école." "The lessons were given adapting to my struggles, and in a very pedagogical way. The instructor was able to motivate me and patiently work step by step during my lessons. I will come back to this school without hesitation"

Daniel M., New York, United States

"Charly was fantastic. He did a great job getting through the material while adapting to lack of wind we had over the week. Very impressed with how he was able to manage the class with many different personalities he had to deal with. Would recommend him to others and looking forward to taking additional classes with him in the future."
