Group Lessons are structured as follows: Note above that only upper levels will be currently offered, to maintain social distancing.
- Parent Child classes are for water adjustment and ages 6 mos. – 3 years. Class limit is 4 students/parents.
- Preschool classes are for beginners through intermediate level swimmers and ages 3-5 years. Class limit is 4 students.
- Youth/School Age classes are all levels through advanced (YL6) and ages 6-12. Class limit is 6 students.
- Adult classes are for ages 13 and up. Class limit is 6 students.
- These age groups are guidelines, not strict rules. For example, a very advanced 5 year old can enroll in YL5, rather than PS3; or an early maturing 11 or 12 year old is welcome to enroll in adult classes. We want the students to be where they are most comfortable, and where their skills fit best.
- Private Lessons can be fit in where an instructor has no group class, or by arrangement with the instructor.
