We follow the the Public Schools Calendar. Specific dates for prebooking and opening are TBD and we will send out emails to everyone with all of the specific information starting one month before we open a quarterly schedule.
Each lesson is booked individually. Folks cancel and reschedule all the time, so the calendar shows random openings. Please email us if you’d like to be added to the last-minute cancellation list. The BEST way to book is through our “Achieve” app from Wellness Living. Find it in your App Store!

You can sit in the greenhouse if everyone can sit quietly on the bench in the far corner. We do recommend family members give extra space for our extra anxious swimmers. You are also welcome to wait in the dressing areas, where there are video monitors for you to watch the lesson. We aim to keep distractions down for our lessons. Please come back at the end of a lesson for the instructor to show you what your child is working on.
Lessons are back to back and only one child is allowed in the water at a time, so unfortunately, no.
Not during standard swim lessons, but feel free to sign up for a family swim! A caretaker is in the water during our Littlest Fish Beginning Bubbler lessons.

Consider our new PREBOOKING option to book a regular spot for the whole season. We do our best to keep instructors consistent with their listed shifts and notify clients when there will be a change. You are always welcome to cancel a lesson without penalty if the occasional instructor shift will not work for you.
Please always let the instructor know if you have a specific aim for your swimmer. Email us if you would like help selecting an instructor who is best equipped for an advanced swimmer.
