Short Answer

Classes are half an hour once a week. Once you enroll you own that day, time and spot until either (1) your swimmer is promoted to a new level and you move, (2) you request a class change or (3) submit a drop request through your Customer Portal.

What that means is we hold your spot forever until you tell us otherwise, this way you don't have to worry about forgetting to schedule.

The More You Know

We Believe

  • That simple steps and solid building blocks lead to long term success.
  • That consistent reinforcement inherent in our year-round, one-a-week, half hour lessons builds success (and smiles!).
  • That teaching breath control, balance and buoyancy is key to creating a comfortable, accomplished swimmer.
  • In introducing children as young as 2 months old to the aquatic environment to backfloat is a lifesaving skill!

Did you know??

Beyond being an imperative life skill, swimming has many positive impacts on the physical and social development of our students, starting as young as 2 months. Our baby splash program is an introduction to the aquatic environment, which amplifies cognitive benefits that occur early on in those tiny, growing brains. We’ve worked with the New Directions Institute for Infant Brain Development to educate our instructors and parents on these benefits, and to promote research in this area.
