PRIVATE SWIM LESSONS
We offer one-on-one instruction by our most-qualified instructors. Private lessons are recommended primarily for adults, teens and children who have an extreme fear of the water, and swimmers who need special attention.  Click on "Swim Lessons" for add'l info!
 
 
 
ATTN PARENTS:

Parents may observe from the bleachers on the deck for the first and last week of lessons. This rule exists to eliminate distraction, commotion, noise and disruptions so that children can concentrate, learn and bond with instructors more effectively. Occasional visits from relatives are not encouraged other than the first and last day of the session. Due to instructor/ participant ratios, we are unable to provide make-up classes. Parents must remain inside the building.

Thanks, in advance, for your cooperation.
