Types of Classes & Services

Not sure what level swimmer your swim is? While it is not necessary to determine levels before placing a child in a private lesson, this is important to know before placing a child in a group. We certainly do not want to have a Level 2 who is learning rhythmic breathing in the same group as a Level 7 who is perfecting their Butterfly stroke for competition.

Please call 368 - SWIM (7946) and ask to set up a time for your free evaluation.

The objective is to help students feel comfortable and confident in the water, as well as learn our basic water safely lifesaving skills so that they may aware and practiced in case they find themselves in water with no help around. Techniques are used to teach elementary aquatic skills as a foundation and continue on to higher swimming levels.

The objective of a group class is to have students acquire fundamental and advanced skills in a group setting, which offers a savings to parents. Should a child enter a group class and be the only swimmer, then you will receive a Private Lesson for the group rate price
