Swim Lessons
Swim lessons are not just for learning how to swim! We offer lessons that cater to every skill level, whether it's learning the basics of swimming or training for an event like a triathlon. We aim to tailor our lessons to meet individual needs.
Adult Group Lessons
Group lessons will consist of eight one-hour classes per session that meet twice per week for four weeks. Make-up lessons will be scheduled for those times when lessons have to be canceled due to inclement weather or a building closure. Make-up lessons will not be scheduled on an individual basis.
