Swim Lesson Add On
As scheduled

Group Swim Lesson
The goal for swimmers in these classes is to develop swimming ability and confidence in the water. Emphasis is placed on mastering fundamental & safety skills in the water. Lessons are scheduled for 30-minute group classes 3 times per week, as scheduled during the hours of the session registered for. Group swim lessons are only available for students registered in full-day or half-day summer programs. Goggles, fins, towel, and kickboard are required. Students enrolled in group swim lessons must be able to independently enter the water and comfortably submerge their heads. Additionally, students are expected to manage their own transitions by changing into and out of their swim attire without assistance. For students who may not yet meet these independent requirements or are not registered in summer programs, private swim lessons are available. For more information on private swim lessons, please visit kapoleiaquatics.com.
