Private and Semi-Private Swim Lesson Information

We offer year-round private and semi-private swimming lessons for all ages and swimming abilities. The best water safety you can provide yourself or your child is swimming instruction. Lessons are designed to teach the basics of how to swim as well as proper stroke techniques and endurance training for the already knowledgeable swimmer. Programs can be adjusted for youth or adult learners, based on their individual needs. These lessons are taught for ages 6 months through adult.

Private swim lessons are one on one. These lessons will be offered during normal business hours, depending on the availability of an instructor. Each lesson is 30 minutes in length.
