    tried wong way 2 different times the first time i had leonard and thought i was the problem because…read moreof my lack of experience and was critiqued heavily the second lesson its like he completely forgot what we worked on and i just thought its okay maybe i can just sharpen what i already know. tried again a couple weeks ago in hope for a different instructor but got the same guy and i told him im okay with my turns and just wanted to work on parallel parking. He proceeded to ask where i learned from and i said my friend and he told me that they didnt know what they were doing even though they have been driving for 6 years. and i had my road test and on the way he FELL ASLEEP but i wasnt gonna let that stop me. when we got there he wanted to get some practice in so we drove the kapolei route and when driving pass a cross walk i slowed down which he asked me why i did so, i couldnt give an answer at the time i just thought its was right and he said there was no reason to and low and behold that was something i got marked down for because i was supposed to slow down incase pedestrians wanted to walk. do not recommend if you guys get leonard im not sure about any other intructor apart of this company i have not been introduced to anyone new.

    This review is in regard to Leonard. He was VERY unprofessional upon helping my niece. He was…read moreyelling at her, he was rude, and he was definitely taking advantage of her. He FELL ASLEEP on the wheel! And took her from Mililani to Kapolei to "feed his horses?!" We definitely called him and demanded a refund! $320 for 2 days just to fall asleep? And when we called him he said he had a "bad day". Then don't go making appointments to help others. My poor 17 year old niece was not at all comfortable during her experience. HIGHLY UNPROFESSIONAL AND WOULD NOT RECOMMEND LEONARD WONG!!!

Thanks to Jacob, the entire process was smooth and stress-free. He was responsive, patient, and an excellent communicator, guiding us step-by-step through exactly what needed to be done. Our daughter attended six consecutive Sunday classroom sessions and, despite some initial apprehension, ended up really enjoying herself. Jacob made the classes fun and engaging with group assignments, skits, videos, and friendly competitions. He even bought boba for the winners--which alone would have won our daughter over! As an added bonus, she got to know students from other schools. The one-on-one behind-the-wheel sessions were just as wonderful. Jacob's car has a passenger-side brake, which eased a lot of our fear and helped our daughter progress much faster. Over the course of the required 50 hours of parent-child driving practice, we noticed a clear boost in her confidence after every session with Jacob. It was also incredibly helpful that he took her on the actual test route the day before her exam, which made her feel fully prepared. Our daughter "passed first crack," and we couldn't be happier! To top it off, Jacob highlights his students' accomplishments on Instagram, which is fun and motivating. We were so fortunate to have found him--Jacob is truly the best!

    Ant is amazing!! Not only does he know all the ins & outs of helping newbie surfers get their…read morebearings, but he has the patience of a saint! We first came to Ant in May 2024 for our 5 year-old son's first surfing lesson. He worked with us to ensure that our kiddo would have the best day in the water by keeping us updated on the weather and surf reports -- he tailored our session around "the best day" for it -- which turned out to be perfect! Our kiddo was standing up on the board in no time and riding waves all the way in! Ant made the experience so fun that our kiddo was instantly hooked and has been surfing since! He even asked that if we ever go back to Kauai if he could see Ant again. Here we are, it's June 2025 (a year after from our 1st session), and our kiddo got to have his second session with Ant! He was so excited to be back on the same beach and show Ant how much more confident he is on the board. This time Ant's daughter was there to assist, since there was another family that joined us in our session. Ant and his daughter made the whole experience smooth and fun, ensuring everyone had equal support and attention. We highly recommend Ant for anyone who wants to experience surfing in a fun and safe environment. Ant's the man!

    Ant was the most amazing teacher and we were fortunate that his daughter Paris was there to help…read morewith the younger kids. He did such a phenomenal job making sure everyone had a LOT of turns catching waves. He was tracking 87,000 things at once - giving feedback on the form/technique of the person who just caught a wave, watching for the next wave to launch an adult student, verbal cues for his daughter and the littles. I've been surfing on the coast of Washington state and in Panama as well as trying out Kailea beach on my own this week, and I caught more waves today than I had in all the other times combined!! Can't wait to come back and take another lesson.

    My wife and I went with our two oldest and told them beforehand that Mom was the most likely to…read moreactually catch a wave, and the rest of us should just have fun. Enter Esiah, our awesome instructor. He went through all the basics for us very green beginners, and emphasized the importance of looking straight ahead (and hula hands, which are now a family staple as we describe to people how to surf). The four of us went out in the water with Esiah, and we ALL FOUR caught waves, even me (who was definitely least likely). Esiah was awesome: complimentary, enthusiastic, and giving us feedback as my wife and I kept coming back to fall off again. Thanks to his awesome teaching, timing, and patience we had a blast, and my wife and I ended the day taking waves all the way to shore where we promptly had our boards run into our shins. Awesome memory, and we look forward to going out again.

    We used KSS 2.5 years ago to learn how to surf- amazingly, even with ALL of the doubt! We were…read morerecently able to bring our 3 boys back, 14, 11, and 7 years old. We had Essyia (no idea how to spell his name) as the instructor for our boys. He was very patient and basic with the instruction for the boys. He made sure they understood the dry land training before going to the water. He helped each one of them ride a few waves. The younger two definitely got worn out pretty quickly. It was our first day there and our lessons started at noon so there could have been a couple of factors for them wearing down. But, I have to say, the youngest one has a Gtube so we were a little worried about him trying this. He did great! Nothing slows that kid down...well maybe an hour of surfing slows him down some. Very thankful for these guys helping our boys have this experience ! ‍
