ADULT SWIMMING LESSONS

It’s never too late to learn how to swim. Adult swim lessons provide a place for adults and teens 16 and over to learn how to swim in a friendly group setting. Adult swim lessons are for those individuals who wish to learn to swim or those who want to improve their technique and feel safe and secure in a body of water. Our swimming lessons are designed to meet the individual needs of each participant. Beginners will learn to enjoy the water, work on fundamental strokes, and lap swimming skills. More advanced swimmers will focus on increasing endurance.
