We offer swim lessons for all ages and abilities with an emphasis on confidence, personal safety, swimming skills and endurance. Our small class size allows for greater individual attention and is offered throughout the week, so you can pick one that best fits your schedule. Need more personalized attention? Private and semi-private swim lessons are available year round.
