WHO IT IS FOR
Parties of four or five – families, friends travelling together, small work groups – who want a lesson run for their group and nobody else. At $125 this is the cheapest of Po’okela’s private formats, sitting below their semi-private lesson at $175 and well below their one-to-one lessons at $250, on the logic that a larger party shares the instructor’s time between them. Choose it when your group is already the right size and you would rather not be mixed into an open lesson with strangers. Equipment and instruction are included; the meeting point is confirmed at booking.
Consider instead: if there are only two or three of you, the semi-private lesson is $175. Six to ten and you are into the open group lesson at $100, which will include people outside your party. On the North Shore, Ohana run private groups of three to five at $115 from Chun’s Reef, with a stated 1.5 or 2 hour duration.
