Learn to swim for fun and for life
About Our Lessons
Our group lessons are taught by USA swimmers who are experienced in the competitive world of swimming and still compete on a year round basis. Each instructor has been trained in class management and knows the goals of what each class level is trying to achieve.
All participants must be potty trained since we have lessons only in the main pool.
Our class ratio is 3 students per 1 instructor, so we have limited spots. We will offer more sections if necessary.
Group lessons are recommended for children ages 3-5 years old
Classes are 30 minutes in length.
Dates and times can be found on registration form.
Makeups are offered only due to weather cancellations - no exceptions
