What to Expect

Our swimming classes for kids are tailored to the needs of each child, so that he or she can progress at a comfortable pace. And although some children may advance more quickly or slowly, our instructors ensure that everyone receives the instruction they need.

What They'll Learn

The Learn-to-Swim program focuses on building skills one step at a time. By allowing them to master one element before moving on to the next, our kids' swim classes make it easy to build confidence in the water.

During their swim lessons, children will spend time on the following six levels:

Pre-School 1: Orient preschool-age children to the aquatic environment and help them acquire rudimentary levels of basic aquatic skills.
Level 1: Introduction to Water Skills: Students will learn how to feel comfortable in the water and safely enjoy it.
Level 2: Fundamentals of Aquatic Skills: Children will learn basic swimming skills.
Level 3: Stroke Development: Additional guided practice will help students improve their skills.
Level 4: Stroke Improvement: Kids will gain confidence during swim lessons, improve their stroke, and gain additional aquatic skills.

All children who are not 100% potty trained are required to wear swim diapers.

Cost: $50/ session (Session includes three 30-minute lessons.
