Group swim lessons are a cost-effective and fun way to learn how to swim with a group of peers. Typically you will attend a group swim class once a week, although we recommend coming more often if you are looking to progress at a faster rate or if you simply enjoy the class. 
Our group classes are divided into swim levels based on age and ability. Your swim level is determined by these factors. The Swim Level guide will assist you in selecting the appropriate level. Each swim level is associated with specific skills learned within that level.

No worries! We can always move you into a class at a different level as long as the class you are looking to move into is available.

Certainly! As long as there are available spots in the desired class, you have the flexibility to switch to a different level at any time and our deck Manager can help you to do that.
It’s worth mentioning that our teachers are skilled in handling multi-level classes, so regardless of your child’s pace of progress, you can continue with the same day and time for their swimming lessons.

There is no family discount for swim lessons. If more than two members of your family are enrolled in swim lessons, the second sibling get $10 off from registration fee.

Yes, you can join a group class at any point during the semester, even if the semester has already started. We will prorate the cost of missed group classes back to you.

Unfortunately, every child is different and they all have different abilities.There are many factors in learning to swim and each parents’ definition of swimming will vary. Most of our students continue through our program until they graduate, but some parents just want their children to know the basics. Every child learns at their own pace, so it’s impossible to determine how long it will take. It is important for parents to have realistic expectations for their children. Please avoid comparing your child to others. Positive reinforcement and consistency is vital for your child’s success. Regardless of what the final goal may be, we feel it’s important that the child learns to have a love and respect of the water.

It is completely normal for a first-time swimmer to be nervous, especially if they are very young. Children cry in order to express their feelings of nervousness due to separation anxiety, a bad past experience, or just an irrational fear of the water. Our instructors are very friendly and are trained to understand the fear that children often have when coming to swim class for the first time.  Normally your child will need 4 – 6 weeks to get used to it and the best thing you can do is to allow the instructor to build trust with your child as you praise them for being such a brave boy or girl. By creating a positive reward system with smiles and high fives, even the most fearful child will learn to love the water.
