Cancellations & Make-Ups
A lesson cancelled due to rain or inclement weather will be rescheduled at no charge, subject to availability. If you need to cancel a lesson, please notify instructor at least 24 hours prior to your scheduled start time. Lessons cancelled without 24 hour notice will not be rescheduled and will not be refunded.
Parents' Job
As a parent it is your job to be positive, consistent, and persistent. Before, during and after lessons clap, cheer and encourage your child. Your child will copy your behavior and attitude. Try to ignore any crying, acting out or temper tantrums. Reinforce the positive. Give praise and then more!
Have patience. Children learn at their own pace. Talk with your child about their lessons. Let them show off their new skills. Practice as much as possible between lessons to reinforce skills and increase confidence. Make swimming a fun and safe experience.
