Description

Swimming Lesson Placement/Class Selection (Please read carefully.)

Please select the correct age range for the student. Please note, the classes are almost identical between age ranges. Beginners will be taught a similar lesson in both the Tot and Levels 1 - 3 groups. The reason for the separation is to keep kids with similar attention spans, tolerances, and maturity levels together. See skill breakdown below:
