The people behind
Margarita Kite School
Ten years on this lagoon. Founders who still teach, local instructors who know every shift in the wind, and coaches who came for a season and never quite left.
Co-founders
The people who started it all
Ruben and Eusebi founded Margarita in 2014. Both still teach most days. That says everything.
Co-founder
Ruben
Co-founder · Instructor · Wingfoil addict
Started Margarita in 2014 with Eusebi and he's still on the water most days. Left Barcelona for Kalpitiya and never looked back. Built this school from scratch with a simple idea — find the best lagoon to learn kite and share it with the world. Current obsession: wingfoil.
Co-founder · IKO Examiner
Eusebi
Co-founder · IKO Assistant Examiner · Head of Training
IKO Assistant Examiner — one of very few in Asia. Still teaches daily and shapes how every course runs at the lagoon. The guy who sets the standard. If you learn with Eusebi, you learn properly.
Senior team
The people you'll work with every day
Local knowledge, IKO certified, and always at the beach before the kites go up.
Sujhi
Manager · Head Instructor
Originally from Kalpitiya, from a family with a long tradition of fishermen. Grew up and trained with us, and knows this lagoon like no one else. Whether you're on the beach, at camp or just need help with anything — Sujhi is the person to talk to. Always happy to help.
Issuru
IKO Instructor · Local expert
Born practically with a kiteboard underfoot. Grew up in Kalpitiya and has been riding and teaching here his whole life. IKO certified with years of experience — when it comes to local knowledge of the lagoon, wind patterns and spots, nobody beats Issuru.
Saheerkan
Beach Assistant · Safety Boat
Our most experienced beach boy and the man on the rescue boat. Knows every situation on the water and reacts fast. On the beach he gets the gear ready, keeps an eye on everyone and is always there if you need a hand — with anything.
Every instructor at MKS is IKO certified
From founders to the newest coach on the team — everyone who teaches at Margarita holds a current IKO certification. No exceptions. That's the standard we've held since 2014.
