Arne Hanna Aquatic Swim Lessons

​​​​Join us to learn the basics, build confidence, or refine your technique. Our trained instructors are looking forward to working with you to meet your swimming goals and have fun while doing it!

Our Preschool and Youth levels follow a standard swimming progression, each level builds on the skills learned in the previous level. All Preschool swim lessons are four students max. Youth levels have a max of five students. Parent and child classes have up to eight parent/child pairs. To enroll in Preschool levels 3-5 or Youth levels 3-6, students must have passed the previous level at Arne Hanna or completed a Placement Test into the level with one of our instructors. The system will not allow students to register without meeting one of those prerequisites.
