Swim Lessons
Available Sessions
We offer several swim lessons for every age and skill level — from babies taking their first splash to experienced swimmers perfecting their strokes.
Baby & Me
6 months – 3 years
Get your little one comfortable in the water! You and your child will work together on bubbles, kicks, back floating, and submersion — building trust and water safety skills through guided play. A parent or adult joins in the pool for every class.
Children must be at least 6 months old. One adult per child in the water. Swim diapers required.

Little Swimmers
3 & 4 year olds
A great first step for kids ready to explore the water on their own. We focus on getting comfortable — putting faces in, flutter kicks, front and back floats, jumping in, glides, and underwater bobs. By the end, your child will feel confident getting in and out of the pool independently.
No goggles at this level — learning to be comfortable without them is an important foundation for later classes.
