Progressive Swim Lessons

Our swimming lessons are family friendly – you pick the day and time that works for you and we do the rest. On the first day of class, we’ll test and divide the kids by skill. Once divided, they will be with this group for the whole session. Parents are allowed on deck the first and last classes only.

Spring Session: $31 Full Member / $62 Program Member
