TKS Miami Watersports

TKS Miami Watersports is the kite school of TKSMIAMI, a brand founded in 2004 by two friends, Morgan Blittner and Juan Pavan, which also sells gear and apparel. The school operates on Miami Beach at 76th Street (the white hut on the sand) and describes itself as the only designated area on the beach where the city allows kiteboarding lessons, given by certified, insured IKO instructors. The area is reserved for lessons and level 3 riders only.

Most lessons are given on site; the team also runs outings to quieter areas of Biscayne Bay with shallow sandbars. TKS rents kite gear and paddleboards, teaches paddleboarding and repairs kites. A private club gives access to chairs, umbrellas, kite launch and landing and ground assistance.

Brands worked with according to the website: Duotone, F-One, ION, Manera, Starboard, Naish, Fanatic and others.
