Private Swim Instruction

Private and Semi Private Lessons:

​

Looking for more individualized attention? Private or semi-private swimming lessons may be what is best for you or your child!

​

We offer adaptive swimming lessons to children and adults with special abilities.  Our professional instructors have helped many swimmers gain function, increased mobility and safety in and around the water.  We work with a wide range of ability levels including persons who have both developmental and acquired neurodivergencies such as ADHD, autism, cerebral palsy, developmental delay and traumatic brain injury. We specialize in adapting our swim lessons to help those with sensory, motor, social and communication differences learn more effectively. 

​

According to Autism Speaks, "Drowning remains a leading cause of death for children with autism and accounts for approximately 90 percent of deaths associated with wandering or bolting by those age 14 and younger."  Being safe both in and around the water is our priority.

 

Tuition for Private Swimming Lessons: (all lessons are scheduled weekly and are billed monthly)

​

  • $60 per 15 minute session

  • $110 per 30 minute session

  • $160 per 45 minute session


 

Tuition for Semi-Private Lessons (2:1)

$80 per swimmer per 30 minute session ($160 total)

 

Self Direction:

We have many swimmers who use RCIL - Self Direction for payment.  We ask that you pay us in advance for the following month's sessions and we will provide you with a paid invoice at the end of the month that you may submit to them for reimbursement. For more information on this program, please click here.  If further assistance is needed, please email us for more information.

 

AquaFastTrack Program

Our AquaFast Track program is specially designed for our AquaBasics swimmers to move to independent swimming skills more quickly.  This is achieved during a series of 15-minute private lessons focusing on comfort with eyes and ears in the water, front floating, gliding independently for 5-10 feet, and independent back floating.  These lessons typically produce independent swimming skills faster than group lessons due to the concentrated instruction and personalized approach. Once independent skills are achieved, swimmers will easily transition to our AquaDevelop group class. 

 

Registration for Private and Semi Private Swimming Lessons

Please email us to set up an appointment with an instructor who best fits your aquatic needs. Our lessons are scheduled based on availability with priority given to swimmers who cannot learn effectively in a group class environment.

​

Once the day and time have been confirmed for your private or semi-private lesson, we will set up the class for you in our system. We will then provide you with a link for you to register. Please note, you must provide the other swimmer for semi-private lessons.

 

Monthly Billing:

You will only be charged for lessons when we are in session. Some months may have 3,4 or 5 weeks that we are in session and you will be billed accordingly. 

​

You will automatically be billed for swim lessons on the 20th of the month for the following month's tuition. If you would like to schedule private sessions week by week, a $10 administrative fee may be added to each lesson tuition. 

​

*Please email us for rates for Aquatic Occupational and Physical Therapy that may be billed through insurance for reimbursement.

 

Canceling a Private Swim Lesson:

For any future cancellations or schedule changes, please email us so that we are sure to update your schedule and bill your account accurately.  Please do not rely on the AquaDeck Assistant or your instructor to let us know. Please email our office at aquabilitieswithjennifer@gmail.com with any schedule modifications and cancellations. We will credit any prepaid tuition less the cancellation fee to your Aquabilities account to be used towards a future lesson.

Please be sure to provide at least 24 hours notice of cancellation of a private or semi-private lesson to avoid being charged the full tuition.  You may be charged the full tuition for any cancellations made with less than 24 hours written notice by email unless you find another swimmer to take your place. Please understand our instructors rely on their hours for income and they will still be paid in your absence.  If you have a weekly spot and you need to cancel outside of the 24 hours, the following fee will be assessed to help cover our instructor's time lost due to the cancellation:

​

  • 15 minute lesson cancellation: $15

  • 30 minute lesson cancellation: $30

  • 45 minute lesson cancellation: $45

 

Canceling Your Swim Lesson Program:

If you would like to withdraw from your swim program, please give 30 days written notice prior to the date you would like to end.  If tuition for the month has already been paid,  we will offer you an in-house credit toward a future enrollment for the remaining weeks of the month, less one week's tuition cancellation fee.  If 30 days written notice is provided, no cancellation fee will be charged.
