WHO IT IS FOR
Pairs and threes who want to learn together in a group small enough that the instructor can watch everyone. At $175 this sits between Po’okela’s open group lesson at $100, where you share with up to ten people, and their private one-to-one lessons at $250. Choose it if you are travelling with one or two others and want the session shaped around your group rather than a beach full of strangers, but do not need an instructor entirely to yourselves. Equipment and instruction are included. The meeting point is on Oahu and is confirmed at booking.
Consider instead: four or five of you should look at Po’okela’s private group lesson at $125. If you want undivided attention, their private beginner lesson is $250 one-to-one. For a fixed, named meeting point and a stated duration, North Shore Ohana run comparable small-group lessons from Chun’s Reef in Haleiwa.
