i am a firm believer in taking lessons. i'v spent a lot of time with wakeboarding and flying my kite from the beach and doing about 10 body drags before trying to kitesurf and this weekend i got up for the first time on the first try and went about 150 yards before trying to tack and ditching it. what im trying to say is that without lessons i would still be trying to self launch my kite let alone get out on the water. good luck with the lessons.
as a side note, the offer from Steve-o $50 for 2.5 hours is a very good deal. trust me because i'v spent a hell of a lot more than that.
be safe and have fun.
