An individualized lesson is a great way to begin your paddling journey or add to your existing skill set! Rutabaga can offer brush-up lessons, help you refine a skill, or start at the beginning. We'll make it work for you!
Please note that scheduling a private lesson takes at least one week. Most of the instructors who work with Rutabaga are independent contractors, so it's a matter of finding a time that works for both them and for you. Thank you for your patience!
Rutabaga offers lessons 7 days a week, based on instructor availability. Lessons start at 2 hours for most students and lesson types. If you wish to learn more specialized skills, we may recommend a longer lesson.
