Our program is built around a consistent and intense methodology to ensure that all swimmers can be safe, comfortable, and confident in the water. According to the CDC, among those ages 1-14, fatal drowning remains the second-leading cause of unintentional injury-related death behind motor vehicle crashes. With accidental drowning causing so many lives every year, water safety is our top priority. Once the swimmers are water safe, their confidence will tremendously increase allowing them to master stroke technique with ease.
Session and Class Duration: Sessions run for two consecutive weeks from Monday to Thursday. There are no lessons on Fridays! Classes are between 45 and 60 minutes long. Ideally, there will be a 1:5 instructor to participant ratio.

Ages: 4 to 12 – all swimmers must be fully potty trained for AT LEAST 6 months prior to the first lesson.
Missed Classes: Make-up classes ARE NOT offered or permitted for any reason. Additionally, if there is a fecal accident, time WILL NOT and CANNOT be made up. To prevent these accidents, do not bring your child to lessons if he/she is sick or has been sick in the last 48 hours. Waterborne illness is a serious issue! Furthermore, DO NOT feed your child at least 30 minutes prior to the lesson. Vomit will also cause a clearing of the pool which terminates all lessons for the day.
