Private Lessons

Private lessons are for the ages 14 months to 4 years, the children are required to attend two lessons per week on either a Monday, Wednesday schedule or a Tuesday, Thursday schedule. This is to provide consistency in their learning.

Note: Private lessons are recommended for families that own a pool, hot-tub or boat, or who vacation on or around water often.

Classes are offered twice per week for 15 minutes for children aged 6 mos to 2 years and 20 minutes for ages 2 to 4 years.

• Infants
  Our goal for infants (6 –14 mos.) is to teach them to become safer in the water by learning to rotate from a face down position to their back where they will be able to relax, breathe and safely float independently. 

• Older Children
  For older children, (14 mos. and up) the focus is to make them safer in the water by teaching them to swim face down and have the ability to roll to their back to breath. They then progress into the swim-float-swim sequence.
  
  The same fundamental skills are taught in all Starfish swim classes, however, in private lessons, these skills can be mastered in a shorter timeframe. Many students start with private lessons and then quickly move into weekly group lessons while continuing to build their confidence and swimming skills.

We schedule private lesson students for the anticipated number of weeks we believe it will take each student to learn these skills. We require you to purchase and prepay for the first three-week-block of lessons.
