Teach With Us!

WHY TEACH A CLASS WITH CAPITOLA RECREATION?

  • We handle all the class registration for you.
  • If you do not have a facility for your class, we will provide one — there is no rental fee and no penalty if the class doesn’t happen.
  • As an instructor, you are automatically covered under the City of Capitola’s liability insurance.
  • Advertising your class through our various media outlets ensures that it will reach over 30,000 households within Aptos, Capitola, Soquel and Santa Cruz.
  • In general, people tend to trust instructors hired through a recreation department more than instructors who advertise independently.
