Swim Lessons

Lesson-Selector

We provide Swim Instruction based on performance, not age, to ensure that we are teaching appropriate skills based on experience and ability.

Use the “Lesson Selector” (Link Above) to identify which Stage is most appropriate for your child.  During the first lesson, our instructor will evaluate each student’s skill level to validate their Stage placement and make recommendations for replacement if necessary.  Taking this step now helps ensure a consistent instruction schedule for your child.

Once you have identified which Stage is appropriate, go ahead and register your child/children and get excited!
