POLICIES AND FAQ'S

We require reusable swim diapers made of cloth or vinyl because disposable swim diapers (like “Little Swimmers”) clog our filters.

• Swim diapers catch bowel movements and not urine, so enter the pool promptly after getting ready.
• Please rinse soiled reusable diapers in the toilet, not the sink or shower.
• Hang dry only – your dryer will warp a reusable swim diaper (or swim suit).
• We sell reusable swim diapers in our retail area.

We offer free make-up classes for missed classes. Here’s what you need to know in order to benefit from this program;

• Give us a call or let the front desk know before you are going to miss
• We will note it in your account and open your spot for another child to get a make-up that day
• Once you’ve let us know, you have 30 days to book your make-up class
• To book a make-up, call 24 hours or less in advance and we will try to find you a spot
• Make-up classes are not available for swim team levels (STUSA and up)

It’s never too late to start swim lessons, but here are a few things to know:

• Early water stimulation benefits your child’s nervous system
• Children are born with an innate love of the water and the earlier they swim, the less likely “outside factors” will affect their attitude about water
• Children who come in for their first lesson after 6 years old still have a great place to start; our Swimmer and Team Prep levels give the older child exactly what she/he needs at a faster pace

• Reusable swim diaper for those not potty trained
• Swim suit
• Towel
• Shampoo/Conditioner – we have showers on site
• Combination lock, if desired
• Goggles – for stroke development levels only
• Cap – for stroke development levels only

We strongly encourage year-round swimming. Here’s a few reasons why:

• Drowning doesn’t just happen in summer.
• Your child grows all of the time and skills will change with different body proportions.
• Practicing continuously ensures that your child remembers safety skills.
• We focus on whole-body activity that improves health, strength, and coordination.
• Studies show that swimming accelerates brain development, aiding in school performance.
• Greater self-control and self-respect due to consistent structured activities, goals setting, and listening skill development.
• Socialization and team building; many of our students create lasting friendships.
