Private and Semi-Private Swim Lesson Instructor

Private and semi-private lessons are a great option for individualized instruction for swimmers of all ages and abilities. From participants who want to focus on specific skills or who just thrive working 1-on-1 with an instructor. Adults and children with special needs have also significantly benefitted from our private lesson program. Interested parties complete a lesson request form indicating their preferred days and times. Instructors may pick up any lesson they wish, as long as there is no preferred instructor. If the preferred instructor is unavailable, it is open to anyone. Private lessons are limited to 1 participant per instructor; semi-private lessons can have up to 3 participants. Lesson packages are available in singles, or packages of 4 or 8. Lessons are also for 30 minutes.

  • Provide consistent, quality instruction, while maintaining the safety of all participants
  • Instructors are responsible for getting out and putting away their own lesson equipment; equipment needs to be put away in an orderly manner
