Frequently Asked Questions for Group Swim Lessons

1. I’m interested in signing up for group swim lessons. What do I do now? Expand

Register for the lessons on our website:
• Click the registration button for your desired swim lesson

Once a group/class reaches capacity, the registration will close, and we will not accept any new participants into group lessons.

2. I turned in my forms. Now what? Expand

Once the registration office processes your registration, the lesson coordinator will contact you to schedule the lessons. It generally takes 3-4 business days after the forms are received to hear back from the coordinator. We cannot schedule your lessons until your registration has been processed.

3. Who are the instructors? Expand

The instructors have experience teaching lessons and are trained by our Swim Lesson Director.  If you have a preference for a specific instructor or would prefer a male or female instructor, please indicate your preference on the registration form.

4. What do I do when I come for my lesson? Expand

The Front Desk will take payment if not purchased online.  Please allow adequate time for this check-in process. From there you can go down to the locker rooms and the pool. Please note that lessons will start and end promptly, so plan on arriving 10-15 minutes early so that you have time to change into your swim suit and arrive on the pool deck. You will sign in at the table located on the shallow end of the pool, then head to our seating area and an instructor will come to take the children to the class when it is time to start.

5. What if I miss a lesson? Expand

We don’t offer make up lessons for Group Lessons unless we cancel the lesson.  We will try to notify you within an hour of your lessons start time if we will have to cancel.  We will notify you of the make-up date for that class (generally Friday of that week).

6. Where should the parents wait during the lessons? Expand

Parents of group lesson participants are welcome to wait on the deep end of the pool deck during the lessons.

You may also wait in the hallway near the pool area, the seating area in the lobby, or in the Pointe Grill if it's open. If you decide to watch from the deck, please do not address your child during the lesson. It is disruptive to the instructor and will distract your child’s attention away from the lesson. Please be aware the parents are not permitted to swim during the lesson unless they are members of the facility and the pool is open. We do recommend that parents are out of sight during lessons so that your child can bond with the instructor and focus all of their attention on the lesson.

7. What happens if my child is the only one that shows up for group lessons? Expand

We will change the hour time to a half hour private lesson.

8. What should I bring for my swim lessons? Expand

We recommend a swimsuit, a set of goggles, a swim cap, and a towel.

9. What are the requirements for each level? Expand

Each level has specific sets skills that need to be met before advancing. Click "Skills Taught" under the class you're interested in for more information regarding skill sets and level appropriateness.

10. How do I know when my child is ready for the next level? Expand

Each participant will receive a progress report at the end of each session that will indicate what level the instructor feels he or she is ready for.

11. How many lessons do I receive per session? Expand

Our sessions run in 3 week blocks, so your child will receive a total of 6 lessons.

12. What is the instructor to student ratio? Expand

We generally restrict our class size to 4:1, four students to one instructor.

13. Are the classes divided by age? Expand

Our classes are arranged by ability; not by age. The more advanced your child is, the higher the level he or she will be placed in.  If we have to mix classes due to low enrollment we will teach each child to their level/ability.

14. What is the difference between Group Lessons and Private Lessons? Expand

Group lessons involve more than one child during a 60 minute time slot whereas a Private lesson is 1 child with 1 instructor. Private lessons provide one on one attention and can help further your child’s swimming abilities. Technique and skills are highly focused on in order to build upon a swimmers foundation.

15. When does registration begin? Expand

Registration starts one month prior to start date, but you must be registered one week prior to start date.
