Learn to Swim Information
It is our hope that each child learns swimming technique, safety, and comfort at Hudsonville Swim Lessons. Swimmers passing to the next level must complete certain objectives for each specific lesson grouping. For this reason, some children may repeat some levels more than once; this progression promotes proficiency. Our Instructors understand that children learn in different ways and in different amounts of time. Our main goal is for children to have fun safely while gradually learning more about swimming. Each instructor is knowledgeable of swimming and is certified in Lifeguarding, CPR, and First Aid. Most importantly, our instructors are passionate about teaching swim safety and enjoy kids. If you feel your child may need more attention, private lessons are available.
When coming to swim lessons, no matter the level, your child(ren) should have:
-swimsuit -towel -goggles
