Private Lessons

Whether you're just getting started or looking to fine-tune your skills, private lessons offer the most effective way to progress. With one-to-one coaching tailored to your individual goals, these sessions provide focused tuition, flexible content, and the freedom to learn at your own pace. 

Private Lesson - Lake

Duration: 1 hour session.

A clean, calm, and controlled environment.
Our lake is the perfect learning space for those new to paddling or looking to build on their existing skills. Whether it’s your first time in a boat or you’re looking for a place to gain confidence on the water, this is a great place to start.

Private lake sessions are also ideal for experienced paddlers who want to revisit key skills, refine techniques, or focus on specific goals such as stroke efficiency, edging, or learning to roll — all in a relaxed, low-pressure setting.

Please note: if you can’t find a time that suits you, mid-week and daytime bookings are often available on our lake. Get in touch, and we’ll do our best to offer a time that works for you.
