What is

Modo
Experto

as a lifestyle?

At Modo Experto School, we believe that watersports have the power to connect us with nature and with new people who quickly become friends and family. We are a community made by water, that enjoys what it does, says what it feels, loves hugs, laughs, walks or eating together after a good session in the water.
In Icaraizinho, Ceará, what defines us is also what makes us stand out.

Living the “Modo Experto” way is being able to free yourself from the concrete and superficial world through a connection with nature and people. “Turn Modo Experto On” means challenging yourself every day to evolve in a sport that connects you with nature, while being open to meeting new people and exchanging experiences. Choose your kitesurf or wingfoil lessons and come ride the Ceará wind with us.

Our motto is simple: Meet, Enjoy and Share. So let’s do it!
Remember, “life’s better when you’re on the water”, and we are ready to bring you an unforgettable experience on the coast of Ceará.

Kitesurf school in Icaraizinho

  • Kitesurf

    Kitesurfing is an exciting sport that combines a board and a kite, letting you glide over the water with the power of the wind. In Icaraizinho, the Ceará wind is the ideal setting to take your first rides or push your level further.

Who
are we?!

We are a group of friends from different countries who chose to live close to the wind and the sea. We decided to live life escaping everything that disconnects us from nature, embracing everything that involves meeting new people, cultures, conversations on warm nights and watching sunsets.

In Icaraizinho, a fishing village on the coast of Ceará, we’ll guide you on an incredible journey through the wind, the sea and the beaches of the region. Whatever sport you choose — kitesurf or wingfoil — you’re not only going to learn, but also have a lot of fun with our team.

As a community made by water, we’ll stand by your side at each step of the learning process. Book your classes in Icaraizinho and join our family!
