Learn-to-swim levels 1-2

Instructors continue to teach new swimming and water safety skills, while also building on previously learned skills. In Level 2 your child begins to perform skills at a slightly more advanced level and gains rudimentary propulsive skills on both the front and the back.

Learn-to-swim levels 3-4

Your child learns to swim the front crawl and elementary backstroke, and is introduced to the scissors and dolphin kicks. Level 4 adds the breaststroke, butterfly, back crawl and sidestroke, and focuses on improving swimming stroke proficiency and swimming for longer distances.

Private lessons

Get one-on-one attention with one of our highly trained instructors. Private lessons are perfect for younger swimmers who are having a hard time integrating into group lessons, and for older swimmers looking for stroke refinement. These lessons are customized to a swimmer's needs, goals and confidence level.

• Six 30-minute classes
• One American Red Cross certified instructor
• $100 for members; $120 for non-members

Semi-private lessons

Bring a friend and hop in! Two or three participants of similar skill levels work at the same time with one swim instructor. This is a great way to improve swimming ability quickly and efficiently together.

• Six 30-minute classes
• One American Red Cross certified instructor
• $60 for members; $70 for non-members (price is per swimmer)

Please note that a minimum of two participants is needed to register. We do not offer any type of swimmer matching service.
