Private Swim Instruction for Children:
Individual private swimming lessons are for ages 2 to 92 years old. No prior swimming experience is necessary. Whether you are a beginner, intermediate or advanced level swimmer, A Lap Ahead tailors our private swimming lessons to fit individual needs.
The lessons are conducted at your or a friend’s residence pool. An A Lap Ahead instructor comes prepared with pool equipment and toys to the location you specify. You pick the time that works best for you. Meet once, twice or three times a week depending on your availability. All private lessons are sold in a series package of six. Payment for the series is due at the conclusion of the first lesson pending satisfaction.
Beginners choose from:
- Twice a Week for Three Weeks
OR
- Three times a Week for Two Weeks
During each A Lap Ahead private swim lesson, we strive to give the highest level of quality care so your child can feel comfortable learning to swim. Attention is placed on respect, patience, and play helping to make learning both lasting and fun. We show by example and ask each child to learn about their body and the water through movement.
A Lap Ahead seeks to inspire self esteem and confidence in every student both in and out of the water. It’s a proven approach that works, one that does not interfere with a child’s natural development.
We strongly recommend purchasing some pool equipment and toys to use as learning aids. That said, we now offer a SwimEase Starter Kit available for purchase. Help your child get water comfortable and swimming. Individual items from the list below can be purchased separately.
The SwimEase Starter Kit includes:
- 1 color foam noodle
- 1 multi handled kickboard
- 1 pair of kids goggles
We at A Lap Ahead recognize it takes courage to learn to swim. Parents can expect an A Lap Ahead swim instructor will:
- Always keep an eye on your child; Make safety first!
- Avoid prolonged negative reactions such as coughing, crying, and screaming
- Nurture growth and learning with positive praise and encouragement
- Create a safe learning environment, both physical and psychological, to the best of their ability
- Have fun with your child throughout the learning process
At the conclusion of each lesson, instructors will give comments on your child’s progress for the day. It is important your child connect with the instructor. If for any reason you wish to change instructors, please contact A Lap Ahead and we will be happy to assist you further.
