Private and Semi-Private Lessons

Semi-Private Lessons – $150 / Swimmer (for 6 lessons in one of two 7-week sessions)
Instead of the one-on-one approach, these lessons include two participates and one instructor.  This program is great for siblings who work well together, friends or family who wish to develop their stroke and master new forms.

Private Lessons – $210 / Swimmer (for 6 lessons in one of two 7-week sessions)
Private swimming lessons include one-on-one instruction customized to the swimmer’s personal needs, goals and confidence.  Our core purpose is to teacher water safety and proper swimming techniques. Private lessons are available for all ages.
