Wednesday Afternoon For Students

School & Home Educated Sessions

Private One-To-One Session

Private / Group Sessions

We offer everybody the opportunity to learn or improve their skills by arranging private sessions for individuals or groups with our instructor team. Please see below, the different categories that we offer, but if you have any further questions, please contact the office.

Private one to one sessions cost £20 per hour, which includes the instructor and rent of all equipment and can be tailored to suit your needs.

Private bookings for groups are £15 per person and must be booked in advance, so we can plan around our 2024 programme.

School & Home Educated sessions are available and are normally a 6/7-week set of sessions during a half term (1 session per week). The students work towards RYA sailing or windsurfing stages and develop new team work skills in the process.

The course below is the improver Home Educated session that is back. If you are a member of Midland Sailing Club then contact the office for your 50% discount code.
