Private Instruction
We offer private swim instruction for swimmers who are 5 and up who are water safe. This means that they can swim a bit on their own, and do not have fear of the water.
If you are looking for lessons for swimmers under the age of 5, please look at our Swim Otters Program located in Wheat Ridge.
These lessons are offered in our fall/winter, winter/spring and summer sessions. They are all with highly skilled swim instructors who bring a coaching perspective to the lesson.
We focus these lessons on all four competitive stroke development (freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, butterfly); diving; and building endurance. These lessons are great for swimmers who need a bit of 1:1 instruction, and want to improve their swimming ability.
We believe that – for most swimmers – one or two sessions (~10-12 lessons) of private instruction should be sufficient for swimmers older than age 5. We will likely recommend that they move into our clinics or Swim Squad at that point. However, this is all dependent on the swimmer and we are happy to discuss more about your swimmer’s specific needs. These are 25 minute lessons.

Please note that you are signing up for a 7 week session (like a season in other sports); there are no drops or transfers. As a courtesy, we allow for 1 make-up per session. Makeups are not guaranteed, have no cash or credit value, and available only when they do not exceed class limits. We anticipate heavy enrollment and very limited availability for makeup classes.
You must request make-ups 6 hours in ADVANCE of the missed lesson on your parent portal. If your swimmer is sick, please call us at 720-554-SWIM to let us know. You get one make-up token for the session and you must schedule your make-ups in our parent portal.
