Questions
If yours is not here, call us and we will answer in plain words.
I have never been in water above my knees. Can I come?
Yes. The first level starts at the rail in waist-deep water, and you stay in it for as long as you like. Nobody asks you to let go before you are ready.
Who is in the pool with me?
An instructor is in the water or on the step beside every swimmer, and no children are in the pool during our classes.
What happens at a placement visit?
You get in the water with an instructor, who watches how you enter, float with support and move along the rail, and then suggests a level. You can get out at any time, and a friend is welcome to watch from the bench.
What should I wear and bring?
A swimsuit or a swim top and a towel. Long swim tops and swim caps are welcome in every class, and goggles are up to you; we have a few pairs to try.
Where do I wait, and can a friend come?
There is a bench by the pool door for your towel and a friend or family member. Guests stay on the deck and do not need to change.
How long is a class?
A class lasts forty-five minutes, and a session is eight weeks. Classes run on weekday mornings, and the schedule shows which levels have room.
What if I miss a class, or the pool closes?
A missed class can be made up in another class of your level within the session, space allowing. We text you when the pool closes, and that class is made up too.
How does tuition work?
It depends on your level and how many mornings you come. The how tuition works page explains what sets it, and the enrollment page shows our current figures.
Is the water warm?
Yes. We rent a warm teaching pool, and the shallow end is where the first levels meet.
