Private Swimming Lessons
Private swim lessons allow clients to have one-on-one training in the pool with a qualified instructor, at their own pace, fitting their own schedule needs. There is no better aquatic instructive experience than personal and small-group private sessions.
To register for private swimming lessons, call 508-767-2505 or stop by our front desk.
Group Swim Lessons
Infants, children and adults can learn to swim from our instructors through Red Cross Learn-to-Swim group swim lessons.
