When creating a class, it is typically easier to duplicate and edit details from an existing class. HFSS creates new classes anytime there is a level change to maintain history.

When changes are made to classes, the edits “go live” instantly. It applies to the entire past and future of that class. With that in mind, when we change an instructor's name (or level) on a class, it erases the past instructors (or levels) and replaces it with the new one. This is why, when changing levels, we must follow the duplicate/create a new class procedure.

NOTE: Each level has predetermined age ranges. When changing a class, you will use the age range guide provided. Remember, weekday morning classes are always the lowest age range for the level.

Why do we have age ranges for classes?
In our experience, our swimmers thrive when they are in class with their peers learning new skills. For example, we do not want to enroll a Goldfish that is 3.0 into an average age over 6.0. There will be a difference in the size of the body, the difference in maturity of understanding directions, and the execution of the skill. Our ideal mix is children within 2 years of each other.If a swimmer is enrolled or waitlisted for a class outside their age range, approval from the Site Supervisor is required. The Site Supervisor understands the class dynamics and can ensure the experience remains successful and enjoyable for all participants.
