Training

 

All of the training that take place at the Academy, both for recreational and professional students, happens on board with 100% real examples and scenarios. The moment you step onto the boat, you are the captain. The instructor is only there to assist you and give you necessary instructions. Our weekly programs start on Saturdays from our base in Marmaris Netsel Marina, and ends on Friday of the same week. 

 

We take advantage of every moment at our weekly courses. Everyday we sail to a different bay or island. Every place we go to, we manage to find somewhere to climb, do yoga, swim and exercise. So you can take the most out of your vacation. Before we go out sailing, we go through our theoretical studies. During the day we sail approximately 5 to 6 hours to arrive at a new destination.


ISSA’s Mission is to : 

Promote Yachting in the regions, areas and among people where it is not popular yet. This is an excellent activity for individuals and families. Helps to develop respect to other people and nature.

 

Educate those who decided to occupy themselves with water sports. Water sport activities provide a lot of fun, but we need to obtain some preparation to enjoy it to a full extent.

 

Standardise training worldwide. We are committed to assist the ISSA schools to maintain the highest and most modern standards of education. We are also open to help those who are not associated. With safety being the main priority.

 

Exchange Cultural Experiences between various countries. As an organisation present on most of the continents we aim to contribute to mutual understanding of people originating from different cultures.
