Scheduling and Booking

How much do lessons cost?

Group classes are $100 for a set of 4 lessons. Private lessons are $55 per lesson, with an additional fee if adding a second or third child.

Do you offer makeup classes?

Unfortunately, we do not offer make-ups or refunds for group lessons. Private lessons can be rescheduled if canceled 24 hours prior to lessons.

What to expect

What do we need to bring to class?

Swimsuit, towel, swim diaper (if child hasn't been completely potty trained for 6 months), goggles (optional). Please don't bring any lifejackets or floaties.

How many lessons until my child can swim?

This question is so hard to answer. It depends on each child. Past experiences, time practicing outside of lessons, the child's motivation, and so much more. But the more they practice, the quicker they learn!

What happens if it rains/the weather is bad?

We will still do lessons in light rain. If its heavy rain, lightning/thunder/extreme wind, we will notify you of cancellations as far in advance as possible. If we need to cancel for any reason, we will offer a makeup or refund for the missed lesson.
