Lessons near S. Bay

Hey Everybody,
I'm looking for some advice. I have taken a full day lesson and feel very comfortable with the kite on the ground and in the water without the board. These are the things I'm confident on:
Set up of the kite
Wind Theory
Self Rescue
Assisted and Self-launch
Most of the basics, etc.
I have not, however, been able to get up on the board yet. I have all of my own gear to include a 12M and 15M kite, twin-tip and directional boards, harness and wetsuit. I'm simply looking to spend a couple of hours in the water with someone who can help me get up on the board and started, and time permitting, maybe start working on going upwind. I don't know if that's a bridge too far, but I'd like to try.
Could you give me some advice on a location and school that could help me out? I would like to do this as early as this friday, if possible.
Thanks
Scat
