ABOUTÂ SWIMMING LESSONS
Red Cross WSI Swimming Lessons are taught by certified Red Cross Instructors and tailored to meet the needs of each participant age 6 months to adult. Â Although some swimmers may advance more quickly or slowly, our instructors ensure that everyone receives the instruction they need.
Red Cross WSI Lessons are released monthly online, and email notifications are sent out ahead to those interested in the session schedules along with the date and time the sessions will be released online.
Swimming lessons are open to members only but we have special membership options for swimming lesson families. Note: Memberships must be set up by the 25th of the month after registering for lessons online. See full membership policy in FAQ.
