The Kite Me Up team at Lo Stagnone

Join a Team That Feels Like You

Kite Me Up is a small, friendly kitesurfing school on the Stagnone Lagoon in Marsala, Sicily.

We do this because we love kitesurfing — and we care about our students' happiness above all.

Our philosophy is simple: teach well, use methods that work, and always do our job with empathy, professionalism, and heart.

01

A World-Class Spot

Lo Stagnone is an incredible spot for teaching kitesurfing: flat, shallow water, lots of space, and a steady, constant wind. Teach where others go on vacation.

02

A Real Team

Small, close, and multilingual. You'll know everyone by name — not just by job title.

03

Room to Grow

We invest in solid teaching methods, so you keep getting better at your craft, season after season.

04

Work With Heart

Empathy and professionalism aren't just words here — they're how we treat our students, and each other.

Your Incredible Workplace

Our working spot is absolutely optimal for teaching kitesurfing, with shallow, flat water across the whole area in front of the school. We usually have a gentle, steady wind that lets us teach in safe, stress-free conditions.

On top of this perfect setup, our school is located away from the busier schools of the lagoon, giving us plenty of space of our own to teach in.
