PRIVATE SWIM LESSONS

These lessons are designed to give participants individualized attention in order to improve or master their swimming skills.
Together the instructor, participants and/or parent determine the goals for the session and the curriculum is customized to meet these goals. Each lesson is 30 minutes in length and are structured for 1 to 3 participants. Minimum of 4 lessons to start.

COVID NOTE:  Current guidelines only allow participants from the same household and a parent/guardian will need to be in the pool with the participant while the instructor stays on the pool deck for Levels 1 - 3. Level 4 - 6 participants will be in the pool on their own with the instructor on the deck following our usual lesson protocols.
