Q: If I miss a class may I get a makeup?

A: Make up classes are not available.  If your child misses class for any reason, it is just a missed class.  If, for some reason we need to cancel a class, we will provide a make up for that lesson canceled.

Q: Does my child need to wear a swim cap?

A: Please have your child wear a swim cap during lessons.  Long hair is heavy and makes swimming difficult.  At the minimum, please braid hair or pull back into a ponytail.

Q: Do I need to buy my child a pair of goggles?

A: Using goggles is up to you and your child.  We encourage all swimmers to learn water comfort without goggles first.  As your child becomes a more avid swimmer, goggles would be helpful.  If you do decide to use goggles, have your child try them on before he/she comes to class.  Be sure they fit snugly and comfortably and fit your child’s face. 

Q: Can I request a teacher?

A: Yes, you may request a teacher and our staff will do everything in their power to get your request fulfilled, but there is no guarantee you will receive that teacher you requested.

Q: Can my child wear a floatie to swim lessons?

A: Water wings or flotation suits are not recommended since they give your child a false sense of security.  At swim lessons we teach your child without these devices.

Q: What should I bring to swim lessons?

A: Each swimmer must have a suit and a towel.
