Baby & Me

Our baby and toddler group classes are SO MUCH FUN! For 3 and under. Babies can start swim lessons as young as two weeks.

Meet a community of parents with similar aged children, have a great time playing, splashing and learning. There will be no other time where you will have the opportunity to learn and bond like this.

Just for Kids

Your child will learn, grow, play and swim with other children of similar age and skill level.

For children age 2.5+, we have small groups of 3-4 students, where your child will challenge themselves in a fun environment. Each level has slightly varying skill abilities, to encourage growth.

Private

One-on-one lessons with your child (or you!) and the instructor. Learn to swim safely, effectively and gently.

Some benefits of private swim lessons include: dedicated one-on-one attention, curriculum flexibility, and the ability to work on and master multiple aspects of swimming in a short time. 

lessons with one caregiver in the water

A group swimming lesson is a 25-minute block of time where participants will work together with Julie in a group setting. Different, progressive skills will be taught through the 9-week curriculum. Students will stay at the level until you are ready to graduate. All classes are billed monthly (based on the number of weeks in the month) to allow you to have the same day and time every week. You may join the class at any time and your first month will be pro-rated to reflect the number of weeks in the month.

SEa Otters

For infants, 2 WEEKS through 8 MONTHS

Sea Otters allows for the littlest swimmers to learn, grow and bond with caregivers.

Early exposure to water is linked to so many beneficial attributes, like early walking, greater immunity, and high self-esteem. Not to mention an added layer of safety around the water.

Babies are born with the natural ability to hold their breath and kick - an instinct they lose anywhere from 2 – 8 months, so the earlier they get in the water, the more we can build on their natural ability! Our special, optional, hoola-hoop activity in one of the final weeks of the swimester demonstrates their natural instincts.

This class is taught with 6-7 children per class + a caregiver.

Manatees

for babies, 6 through 24 MONTHS

Manatees tend to be a bit older and animated than the littlest Sea Otters. The class focuses on happy swimmers, teaching the parents the skills they need to feel comfortable in the water with their child. Reinforcing safety routines while keeping the lesson fun is the main goal of this level.

Skills covered include: floating, kicking, submersion, and safety. As each child develops, new skills are added to keep the process fun and inviting. The Manatee group is both a good place to begin to learn to swim, and a place for the little ones (Sea Otters) to graduate.

This class is taught with 6-7 children per class + a caregiver.

Sea Turtles

for Advanced toddlers, 18 Months- 3 years

This class is for students who need a bit more than the Manatee class. They will learn all the basic safety skills and terminology. Students in this class are introduced to floating, submersion and safety skills, independent swimming, breath-work and stroke development.

All students in this class are returning swimmers. If you are interested in this level, talk to your instructor about whether or not your child would benefit from participating in this class. If you are unable to find a Sea Turtle class that fits your schedule the Moray Eel class will be a good fit.

Moray eels

for beginners, 2-4 years

This class has an emphasis on making toddlers and young children comfortable around the water. They will learn all the basic safety skills and terminology. Students in this class are introduced to floating, submersion and safety skills, independent swimming, breath-work and stroke development.

This class will give first-timers the special attention that goes along with learning the basic routine of the swimming classes, terminology and safety skills that are practiced with every swimmer from the time they start Swim With Phyn.

This class is taught with 4-5 children per class + a caregiver.

STingrays

for beginners, 2-4 years

New students should sign up for a Moray Eel class. Stingrays are always recent graduates of Sea Turtles or Moray Eels.

lessons with kids & instructor only

A group swimming lesson is a 25-minute block of time where participants will work together with Julie in a group setting. Different, progressive skills will be taught throughout the month. Sessions should be repeated until you are ready for the next level. All classes are billed monthly (based on the number of weeks in the month) to allow you to have the same day and time every week. You may join the class at any time and your first month will be pro-rated to reflect the number of weeks in the month.

sunfish

Beginners, ages 2.5-6

Sunfish work towards mastering floating, submersion, safety skills and the ability to independently swim the length of the pool. They will begin to learn the basics of breath-work and stroke development. This class will give first-timers the special attention that goes along with learning the basic routine of the swimming classes at SWP, terminology and safety skills that are required to move to the next level. They will continue in this level until they can master the skills listed in the Baby Beluga paragraph below.

This class is taught with up to 3 children per class.

Beluga

intermediate, ages 3-6

Belugas will continue to practice the basics of all four strokes, stamina, breathing skills and form. Belugas may still need assistance swimming the full length of the pool, but they should be able to swim the width unassisted. Once they have mastered the length of the pool and the basic stroke forms, they will move to the next level.

If your child is at least four years old, has had lessons before, is independently (no flotation devices) swimming the width of the pool AND can independently take a breath while swimming (without assistance), you may register for a Baby Beluga class instead of a Sunfish.

This class is taught with up to 3 children per class.

Orca

beginner, ages 6+

Students in this class will work towards mastering floating, submersion, safety skills and the ability to independently swim the length of the pool with continued practice on breath-work and stroke development. This class will give first-timers the special attention that goes along with learning the basic routine of the swimming classes, terminology and safety skills that are practiced with every swimmer from the time they start Swim With Phyn.

Narwhal

intermediate, for ages 6+

Narwhal will continue to practice the basics of all four strokes, stamina, breathing skills and form. Narwhal should be able to swim the width unassisted.

Please contact Julie if you wish to select a private lesson time slot as not all available lessons are listed online. Classes are added as they are selected for enrollment by new families. Private lessons are primarily available in the morning, early afternoon and evening as group classes are in the afternoon.

Private sessions can:

• promote greater confidence in the water,

• provide the extra assistance needed to overcome a hurdle,

• allow a student to process the lesson without distraction.

• allow for the parent to remain out of the water
