Want coaching shaped around your goals rather than a fixed group plan? Private lessons give you focused paddleboard tuition, whether you are starting out or polishing technique for local lochs. The session is flexible, practical, and built around what you want to improve.
Your coach starts by understanding what you want from the session, then builds a plan around that. Beginners may focus on standing and safe remounts, while experienced paddlers can work on efficiency, turns, or preparation for longer outings on nearby lochs.
Because the lesson is private, feedback stays specific and the pace stays flexible. You can repeat drills until they feel natural, ask questions freely, and spend more time on the skills that matter most for your next hire day or guided tour.
Board and safety kit are provided so you can concentrate on coaching points rather than logistics. Exact launch choice follows the day's conditions, with sheltered water for first steps and slightly more open water when refining tracking and control.
Private sessions use suitable water around Callander chosen for your goals and the day's conditions. Sheltered spots suit first lessons, while slightly more open water helps when refining tracking and control.
The Trossachs setting offers calm bays and scenic shores close to town. Meeting details are confirmed with your booking, with the shop base at 6 Leny Road when collection starts there.
All participants must be able to swim. Share your experience level and goals when you book so coaching can be prepared. Soft-soled footwear and clothes suitable for getting wet are required.
Younger paddlers should attend with a responsible adult. Mention any injuries, nerves, or specific aims in advance so the coach can shape the 1.5 hours around what will help most.
One-to-one coaching is ideal when group timings do not fit, or when you want clear progress on a specific skill. Local instructors know which nearby water suits different goals and weather windows.
You get board, paddle, leash, and buoyancy aid included, plus focused feedback that transfers directly to hire days, loch tours, and future practice on Trossachs water.
Private coaching suits beginners who want extra attention, improvers with specific goals, and families or friends who prefer their own session timing. It also works well if mixed abilities need a flexible plan.
If you are happy in a shared group at a set level, the intro or intermediate sessions can be a good alternative. Choose private when personalisation matters most.
The standard session is 1.5 hours. That usually covers briefing, focused drills, and enough water time to practise the key points.
Arrive ready to paddle so coaching time is not lost to kit delays. Soft-soled shoes and a quick change of clothes help you finish the session comfortably.
The calendar may show more than one customer type or slot depending on the date. Choose the option that matches who is taking part and when you want to paddle.
Always confirm the amount for your date in the booking calendar before paying.
No. Private lessons can start from absolute beginner level or pick up advanced technique work. Tell the coach what you want to achieve when you book.
Clear goals help the session stay useful, whether that is first stands, cleaner strokes, or confidence for a future loch paddle.
All ages are welcome when participants can swim confidently. Younger paddlers should attend with a responsible adult.
Mention ages and experience in the booking notes so the right board size and coaching approach are ready on arrival.
Yes. Your lesson includes a paddleboard, paddle, leash, and buoyancy aid, plus instructor coaching for the full session.
Personal clothing and footwear are not included. Optional accessories may be available separately if you need them on the day.
Wear clothes you can get wet and soft-soled shoes with good grip. Quick-drying layers are better than heavy cotton.
Bring a towel, spare clothes, and weather layers. In cooler months a wetsuit makes a big difference to focus and comfort.
Private coaching can often cover a small private group when that is agreed at booking. Confirm numbers in advance so the coach can plan safely.
If your group is larger, ask about the best format. Sometimes a guided tour or group lesson fits better than a single private slot.
Conditions are checked carefully. Light rain is often manageable, but strong wind or unsafe water can mean a location change or rearrange.
If the lesson cannot run safely you will be contacted with options. Safety decisions come before keeping a fixed launch point.
Unless told otherwise, meet at 6 Leny Road, Callander, FK17 8BA. Some sessions move to a different launch if conditions require it.
Parking is available in Callander. Allow a little extra time in busy periods so your coaching window starts on schedule.
