Summary: We signed 13 yr old grandson up for a semi private lesson. There were others his age we noted on the board but we were told it had to be a private lesson for more money. It was OK but it feels like they do that when they have plenty of instructors available. . Mike was his instructor and he was great. Our grandson had a blast and got up on his second try. It looked like all the instructors were kind and good teachers.
