Group Swim Lessons

Overview & Philosophy

As a famous blue fish one said, “just keep swimming, just keep swimming…”  Swimming is an invaluable, lifelong activity that can be learned and enjoyed at any age!  Join us in the Aquatic Center where we explore a variety of skills while gaining confidence and independence in and out of the water.

What makes us unique is that we encourage participants to progress at their own pace during the session.  Through weekly updates with instructors, each participant and/or their caregiver will review what has been accomplished, what they’re working on and what to look forward to in the coming weeks.  This builds confidence, gives everyone something to celebrate and takes the worry out of what’s next.  Doing so allows us to take the focus off completing a level and instead, put it on gaining independence while developing lifelong skills.

Session Information

Daytime classes: meet two (2) days per week for four (4) weeks totaling eight (8) classes.

There are two, four week sessions:

  • June 3 – June 29, 2019 and
  • July 8 – August 3, 2019

Minimum class size for any level is 3 participants. If the minimum is not reached on the first class meeting, the class will be cancelled and fees refunded.

Registration

Something that puts us over the top is that we’ve taken the guesswork out of registration and made it easy for everyone.  Just sign up for the appropriate age group, and we’ll do the rest!  The first day of each session includes an orientation to swim lessons and a quick skills assessment.  From there we match each participant with the best instructor for them and let the learning begin.  Easy peasy!

The listed fees are for the entire session and must be paid in full at registration.  Participants or their caregivers are asked to choose the class day and time that best meets their schedule.  Make-up lessons are not available for swimmer absences including but not limited to personal scheduling conflicts, brief illness or injury, vacation, etc.

Registration after the start of the session may be allowed based on enrollment capacity but is not guaranteed.  Please register prior to the start of the session to ensure your space in the class.
