Fill out the private swim lesson request form
Please be aware of our private and semi-private swim lesson policies:
- Please respect your swim instructor's time! We recognize that your time is valuable, and expect you to treat our instructors the same.
- If you need to cancel a lesson, you must notify your instructor directly of the cancellation at least 24 hours in advance of your lesson. Failure to do so may result in the loss of your lesson.
- If you are running late, your instructor may not be able to extend your lesson past the scheduled time depending on their personal schedule or schedule of other programming. They may be able to make up the missed time on another date if they can't extend your lesson if you were late due to extenuating circumstances (or due to a train on the tracks). We will not make other scheduled lessons run late to accommodate late arrivals, and you may lose your time.
- You must check in at the front desk at the beginning of every lesson before class can begin.
- Semi-private lessons can only be taught if all attendees are present and checked in.
- If you have incompatibilities with an instructor, please contact the Assistant Aquatics Coordinator at 303-655-2213. We will try to pair you with an instructor who better suits your needs.
- We do not recommend our private swim lesson program for children under the age of three. It is not developmentally appropriate to expect a full attention span for 30 full minutes in cold water. We recommend enrolling your littlest ones in Water Babies - group lessons.
