FUN AND ADVENTURE IN THE SEA
OUR TEAM
We are a group of friends from different countries who live life appreciating the beautiful connection between wind and sea while surfing at the best surf school in Viana do Castelo.
FOUNDER | CEO
An businessman from Uruguay who found in the ocean a new way of life and business. My journey began in the transport and waste management sector in Uruguay, where I led a solid and growing company. However, I always knew my path wouldnβt stop there. In 2020, amid a global crisis, I made the decision to completely reinvent myself and move to Portugal, pursuing a lifelong passion: water sports.
Thatβs how Modo Experto School was bornβan academy specializing in kitesurfing, surfing, and wingfoiling, where I not only teach advanced techniques but also build a community based on values, experiences, and personal growth. My vision is clear: to position Modo Experto School as the leading water sports academy in Europe and establish Viana do Castelo as a top destination in the industry. Because, just like in kitesurfing, in life, you have to let go of fear, trust the wind, and let yourself be carried away.
AMBASSADOR OLIMPYC
Water sports are my life. Iβve grown up sailing and kiting and today I am lucky enough to travel the world competing in kite racing trying to achieve the lifelong goal of participating in the Olympic Games. Water Sports for me is about feeling the connection with the Ocean and sharing it with everyone.
I love to pass on my knowledge and create memories on the water. My favourite spot is Viana do Castelo because itβs where I feel I can be myself β calm and collected while enjoying what nature has to offer me and my water sports Family.
KITESURF INSTRUCTORβ
Exactly 15 years ago, I entered the fascinating world of kitesurfing, specifically in the kitewave discipline. My interest in this sport began when I was still a child, on the beaches of Cumbuco, the ultimate kitesurfing paradise in Brazil, my home country. Today, I live in Braga, Portugal, and I carry this passion with me to new horizons.
Since then, my connection with kitesurfing has only grown, turning into my profession. Over the years, I have dedicated my time to sharing my knowledge and experience with students, guiding them on their journey into the world of kitesurfing. For me, there is nothing more rewarding than meeting new people, exchanging experiences, and helping to unveil the beauty of this sport.
I am truly excited to continue this journey and share all my kitesurfing knowledge with even more people.
SPORT COACHβ
A Brazilian from Bahia with a deep passion for sports. My first experience was with swimming at the age of three, and since then, I have explored various disciplines, both team-based and individual. This journey, combined with my interest in studying the human mind, led me to sports psychologyβproviding the essential foundation to merge my two greatest passions.
Since 2018, I have been helping athletes and teams achieve their best performance through mental strengthening in a healthy, enjoyable, and effortless way.
Today, as a Sports Coach at ModoExperto, my mission is to support all the professionals who are part of this team while ensuring the highest quality of the learning experience we provide!
KITESURF INSTRUCTORβ
And I am passionate about kiting and communication. 6 years ago I discovered this sport that changed my life completely, I decided to adapt my life to spend more time in the water and do all the activities that I love. Combining the teaching of sports and photography (another of my passions) has been what allows me today to live a dream and be able to work while traveling. I know the opportunity that sport offers for personal development and I am motivated to work on projects that focus on it, that is why I passionately transmit my knowledge so that more people can connect sport, nature and with themselves.
SURF INSTRUCTORβ
Since childhood, my passion for surfing began with a skateboard, gradually evolving into a deep connection with the oceanβa place that has always fascinated me.
Over the years, I invested in my sports education, earning a degree in Sports and Leisure from the Escola Superior de Desporto e Lazer in Melgaço. During my studies, I crossed paths with the Modo Experto school, which provided me with essential tools for practicing surfing and further deepened my interest and fascination for the sport.
Today, I am dedicated to teaching surfing and kitesurfing, sharing my passion and knowledge of the waves with enthusiasm and commitment.

The most important thing about surfing is to have fun, and there's nothing I enjoy more than seeing my students laugh, have a good time, and connect with the ocean in every class.
