Swim Class Schedule

Classes start the week you enroll and run year-round. Once enrolled, you will keep your day and time each week from month to month until you notify us through email of a desired change or withdraw. Lessons are weekly and ongoing, not a one-time event. You can enroll in as many classes per week as you wish.

 

The skills listed at each level are taught in the class, not what the student needs to know to be in the class. A student will not move to the next level until they can adequately perform the skills in their current class. Please contact us if you are unsure of which class to register into. 

Stages and descriptions are listed below.
