By Blue Ocean Sports

Are you ready to watch your kids soar across the water with confidence and skill? Introducing the Grom Foil Academy a thrilling 12-week Wing Foiling program tailored for kids and teens in Dubai who already know the basics and are eager to level up. Hosted at the serene, flat-water cove of Jebel Ali Public Beach, this program turns aspiring riders into confident pros through expert coaching, fun challenges, and a supportive community. Whether your child dreams of racing, freestyle tricks, or just epic rides, Grom Foil Academy is the launchpad they've been waiting for.

The Aim of the Program

What It Is
Grom Foil Academy is a structured 12-week journey designed for young riders who can already handle the basics of Wing Foiling. Sessions run once a week for 1.5 hours each, focusing on advancing skills in racing, freestyle, or general riding. Key activities include skill assessments, buoy turns, speed drills, jumps, and competition preparation—all under the guidance of a 22-year-old advanced Wing Foiler with competitive experience and a Diploma in Sports Management.

Why Join?
Inspired by the adrenaline of competition and the joy of community, this program sparks a lifelong love for Wing Foiling. Our lead coach, who began racing young thanks to family ties with Naish (a top distributor), knows firsthand the thrill of pushing limits. Kids will experience the rush of racing, breaking personal records, and learning to navigate wins and losses in a positive environment. The ultimate goal? Build unshakeable confidence, honed skills, and a close-knit crew—potentially leading to ambassadorships with brands like Naish, Prolimit, and Red Bull.

How It Works
We start with a personalized skill assessment to customize your child's path: racing, freestyle, or fun-focused riding. The program unfolds in three phases:

• Foundation (Weeks 1-4)**: Master the basics and build confidence through core techniques
• Development (Weeks 5-8)**: Refine skills with specialized drills and path-specific training
• Mastery (Weeks 9-12)**: Gear up for competitions with advanced tactics and real-world prep.

Sessions mix on-water action with off-water education on etiquette, strategies, mental and physical conditioning, and safety (helmets and impact vests are mandatory). It all culminates in a mock competition with community cheers, creating a safe space for growth and excitement.
