Sailing connects young people to nature and has a lot of benefits:
- learn perseverance
- healthy
- becoming part of nature
- strategic thinking
- take responsibility
- self-confidence
We learn to sail on Boards, Optimists, Toppers and Yachts (1).
To become a good sailer, we integrate other sports in our trainings:
ski racing: power, endurance
chess: strategy
swimming: security
climbing: back muscles, equilibrium
ski-mountaineering: coordination, equilibrium
surfing: coordination, equilibrium
cycling: coordination, equilibrium
(1) The TOPtoTOP expedition sailboat can operate with maximum safety in the toughest marine environments, and therefore is a great tool to learn young people to sail on a yacht.
