any recommendations for surfski coaches/ instructors in the SF Bay area?

I'm a brand new surfski paddler, coming from sea kayaks. I'm looking for help with the basics-- stroke, hands positions, boat setup, etc. I plan to go for fitness paddles a couple times a week after work and hopefully fun runs on the weekends--i want to work up to open- water downwinding.

Kenny Howell might still be giving lessons and putting on clinics:
