Lessons are for children aged 5-13 who are interested in learning to swim more efficiently. Swimmers will improve their techniques in backstroke, butterfly, breaststroke, freestyle, starts, and turns. They will develop a feel for the water and learn the proper head position, body balance, streamlining, rotation, and undulation. Swimmers will be grouped based on their ability level.
- The Pingry School 131 Martinsville Rd., Basking Ridge, NJ
- Raritan Valley Community College (RVCC) 118 Lamington Road, Branchburg, NJ (Physical Education Building)
In pricing lessons, we have taken into account that a pool closing might be beyond our control and have priced lessons accordingly. There is no makeup class or refund for the first canceled class. If we need to cancel more than one class, we will add a makeup class.
