PRIVATE SWIM LESSONS
We offer year-round private swimming lessons for both adults and children, which is perfect if you prefer individual instructor attention. Maybe you started learning to swim as a child, but never quite mastered it? Maybe you’re afraid of the water? Maybe your child is a little nervous about learning to swim, so you’d like to ensure they have special attention in a one-on-one environment? Whatever the reason, we’re here to help you learn to swim confidently, with a certified and supportive instructor, so you can enjoy the beautiful bodies of water in our communities – whether it’s a pool, lake, or our majestic Pacific Ocean. Our private lessons are tailored to your individual skill level and are 30 minutes OR 1 hour long.
We ask that you arrive 10 minutes early to change and rinse off in our locker rooms before entering the pool.
