Group Swim Lessons

Swim lessons for kids of all abilities
Our instructors have been trained and are excited to teach your kids about swimming and water safety, regardless of level! Our core philosophies are to teach to the level of the child, provide constant feedback, and to ensure that students are introduced to the basics of each skill before being asked to master it.
Our lessons are designed for children 3 to 12 years old.
