Private Swim Lessons
These 1-on-1 sessions allow for swimmers ages 4 and up, of all skill level, to progress at their own pace and have the focused instruction of their instructor. These are great options for children who thrive better from 1-on-1 attention, teenagers who need to prepare for lifeguard training prerequisite skills, and adults who want to improve their strokes. Private Swim Lessons are held at the Jefferson Community Center and Cape Aquatic Center. To book a private lesson, click here to sign up through our Google calendar. We will take payment at time of first lesson. For more information, contact Matt at [email protected]. Click here for a printable flyer.
