SwimAmerica Swim Lessons will begin February 8, 2023 for school-age children.
The SwimAmerica School-Age Swim Lesson Program is one of the most progressive group lesson experiences your child will encounter. Because the swimmer proceeds through the ten stations at their own pace, each child feels that their needs are being uniquely addressed. The personal attention helps the most reluctant swimmer feel comfortable. The classes are goal-driven and technique-oriented, with emphasis on good swimming form — our ten teaching stations will take your child from bubbles to butterfly.
Registration Fee (for 7 lessons*)
*8th lesson is either a bonus, or a make-up, if you miss one of the seven lessons
Members: $80.00
Non-members: $100.00
