Locations and Schedule
-
We are located in Hollywood, MD.
All of our sessions are primarily held at a private location in Hollywood (Fall and Winter indoors, Summer outdoors).
Occasionally we hold lessons at the Wellness & Aquatics Center on the College of Southern Maryland campus in Leonardtown, MD.
-
Lessons are conducted 4-5 days a week, at a maximum of 10 minutes a day, for approximately 6-8 weeks. Each child has their own lesson time daily.
The consistency of daily lessons is critical for learning efficiency. These are NOT traditional swim lessons! We are teaching highly specialized skills and it is very important to attend class every day your child is scheduled. If you cannot commit to this schedule, you may not register until you are sure you can.
-
Available lesson times can vary but morning session times are typically between 7:30-11:00am. Evening session times are typically between 3:30-6:00pm.
-
Lessons are 4-5 consecutive days a week so you will always need to attend lessons on weekdays. Currently and for the foreseeable future, we will be operating on a Monday- Friday schedule.

We encourage families to consider lessons in the "off season" to arm their child with aquatic skills BEFORE pools begin to open for the summer. A common hesitation from parents is that their child will forget if they don't learn right before swim season.
ISR Self-Rescue Skills are a sensorimotor skill- just like crawling, walking, or riding a bike. Sensorimotor skills are not simply forgotten, although they can certainly get rusty without use.
This is why we will encourage you to return for Refresher and Maintenance lessons periodically after your child’s initial learning. These follow up learning opportunities will ensure your little one gets to adjust their skills to their rapid growth and will keep things sharp.
Regardless of what season your child learns in, maintenance lessons are highly recommended. It is advised to get into lessons as soon as you are able vs waiting for the perfect time- the sooner the safer.

For private lesson inquiries, email us and we can let you know if it's something we are able to work into the existing or upcoming schedule. We typically can only fit in one private stop in the summer session. Private lessons start at $2500/student (no sibling discounts can be applied) and depending on location may incur an additional travel fee.
