Disparity is the norm. It would be weird if the pay was the same.

This is more true the more specialized you get. What is the pay for hockey coaches in Hawaii versus Toronto?

The first two sites with listed fees for 1:1 skating lessons that I found:

Toronto: $160 CAD ($125.34 USD) for 45 minutes, which is $2.78 USD/minute https://www.evergreen.ca/whats-on/event/private-learn-to-ska...

Toronto: $9-$15 CAD ($7.05-$11.74 USD) per 15 minutes, which is $0.47-$0.78 USD/minute https://www.uppercanadaskating.com/pages/Programs/privateles....

Hawaii: $25 USD for 20 minutes, which is $1.25 USD/minute https://www.icepalacehawaii.com/private-lessons

Hawaii: Perhaps unsurprisingly, I wasn't able to find a second site in my 10 minute timebox.

Not trying to snark, was just interested in looking up some skating lessons.

I looked briefly to find the compensation of the head coach of the Maple Leafs. It's not easy to find, but I'm guessing it's a lot based on how they talk about the contract.
