From Hotel Manager to Kitesurf Instructor
Sebastian (founder of LAB) comes from a real hospitality family. It was therefore obvious that he would start working in the family hotel. After about 10 years it turned out that not the catering industry, but kitesurfing was his passion. So in 2019 he stopped at the hotel and started gaining experience as a kitesurfing instructor at a school in the Netherlands for a season.
In the winter of 2019/2020, Sebas worked on his skills in Aruba for a while and in the spring of 2020 the opportunity arose to open his own school. Of course he grabbed this one with both hands and together with Ankie they now run the Loops And Barrels Kitesurfing School!
Oh don't forget that the little French bulldog Monkey often comes to watch your lesson!

Kitesurfing
A water sport for young and old. Sebas himself was about 23 years old when he started this. Snowboarding once or twice a year wasn't enough for outdoor sports, and it wasn't really made for football either. Kitesurfing was a hit! Kitesurfing gives a kick, you can practice it at different levels and the natural elements that come together make you completely stoked!
It takes some hard work, getting the kite under control, making your first water start and then learning to sail upwind, but you work towards a sport for the rest of your life!
