Why Choose The J Swim School?
The J Swim School provides year-round swim lessons for children and adults. Our program is designed to teach water safety, develop proper techniques for multiple swim strokes and inspire a passion for swimming. Our trained instructors will use their swimming experience, knowledge and personalities to mold our participants into safe and confident swimmers.
For children <2 years old, we offer parent-tot group swim lessons. This is a fun, gentle way to introduce your child to water skills, e.g., kicking, back float and putting their face in the water.
For those >2 years old, the program has five levels that start with beginning skills and progress all the way through learning the freestyle and backstrokes. Upon completion of Level 5, we offer stroke clinics to further one’s swimming skills!
Swim lessons are offered in private or group formats. Group lessons are more available than private lessons. Group lessons are provided in 6-week sessions, 30-minute lessons, once a week. There may be up to 3 children in level 1, 4 in levels 2-5 and 6 in stroke clinics. Parent-tot groups may have up to 6 families per group. Swim lessons are available at various times during the day on Saturday and Sunday and from 3-7pm Monday through Thursday.
The Jewish term l’dor v’dor means passing skills from one generation to the next. With this in mind, The J Swim School hopes to teach a new generation the skill of swimming, knowing that it will improve their fitness, fun and safety as it has for swimmers at The J for over 125 years.
