Tadpoles – Ages 6m-2
Using a variety of activities, games and songs, instructors will encourage participants to develop a lifelong enjoyment of the water. Learn to perform flutter kicks, entering and exiting the water and basic water safety skills. Children who are not toilet trained must wear a swim diaper. This program requires active, in-water participation of the adult and child. Class includes group and free-time activities.
Swim Academy Prep – Ages 3-4
Using a variety of fun activities, assisted exercises and free play, children will build confidence in the water and learn basic swim skills. Children who are not toilet trained must wear a swim diaper.
Swim Academy – Ages 5+
Ready to learn swim strokes or improve your swim technique? Swimmers will be challenged through six levels in a fun learning environment. Each child’s strength, coordination and endurance will impact development. Skill level progression may take multiple sessions. Lessons offer survival skills, swim techniques and water fun to keep your swimmer active all summer long!
Private & Semi-Private Lessons – Ages 3+
Get the same learning experience in the Swim Academy program but with more individualized attention. This type of lesson is also great for improving stroke techniques. You must give 24 hours’ notice to reschedule or cancel a lesson or you will be charged. Specific instructor requests are accepted, but not guaranteed.
Sensory Cove – Ages 5-12
Creating an environment free of sensory overload stimulators is essential. During lessons, minimal water features are turned on and there’s very few people in attendance making it a comfortable learning experience for participants. More details: click here

FAQs
Absolutely! In fact, staff encourages it. Chairs are available for your leisure. At Otter Cove Aquatic Park, please sit on the pool deck under the shade structures.
For their safety, children not participating in swim lessons must be supervised by a parent/guardian, away from the water.
Staff’s goal is to make up every missed lesson; make-ups will be held on Fridays for rainouts. If weather causes multiple cancellations, staff cannot guarantee make-up lessons. There are no make-ups for personal scheduling conflicts resulting in a swimmer’s absence.
Staff will do their best to make accommodations. However registration is
not guaranteed.
