-Dates: Tuesday May 28 - Monday August 5, 2024 (10 weeks total, but you pay for 8 weeks)

  • Each swimmer has 1 week to skip for vacation

  • Your instructor will be gone for 1 week of vacation - this leaves 8 weeks of lessons

-Time Slots:  Monday - Friday we will have Swim Parties available for booking in the following time blocks.  There will be multiple available per day/time based on the location.

  • Morning: 9:00am start time  (End time dependent on # of swimmers. If 6 swimmers, end is at 12pm)

-Cost: $399 for 8 weeks of private, traveling lessons per participant

  • $349 for 8 weeks of summer lessons for the host swimmer (you get a lesson free for organizing and booking upfront). The host signs up and commits to 3 - 6 swimmers at their backyard/neighborhood pool and chooses the day/time/location block.

  • Your instructor will come to one house/neighborhood pool (the host house or host neighborhood pool) the same time each week during the session for your ‘swim lesson party’. During the time block each week, they will teach your 3 to 6 swimmers in private lessons, back to back in 30 minute increments.

    • One person in your group will be the ‘host’ - the host is responsible for booking the time slot when bookings open, paying the down deposit and securing the pool. There is a minimum commitment of 3 swimmers per location.

    • The pool can be their backyard pool or your neighborhood pool - this will be the location for your swim lesson party for the summer 

    • The host is also responsible for finding the other participants for that time block and adding the names/contact information on the signup form for the other swimmers that wish to attend

    • If the host has 1 child, you’d invite 3 - 5 other swimmers/friends/family members to participate.  If the host has 2 children, you’d invite 1 - 4, etc. 

    • The host will choose the weekly time block and day during the host signup process. During the signup process, they will pay their $349 deposit to cover their lessons and submit the names of their participant and the other 2 - 4 participants and their contact information.

    • **Host perks:  lessons are at your backyard/neighborhood pool, and your down deposit covers the cost of your lessons for the summer (you get a lesson free)

    • Please organize with your friends and family in advance - you will need to include their information on the signup and they will need to be locked in. 

  • Once all time blocks have been taken by the swim lesson party hosts, I will send out invoices and waivers to each of the individual participants included on the host sign up.  They will be due a week from that date.

    • Only the host needs to sign-up on the signup release date. Participants in the group will be invoiced a few days later.

  • Host Down Payment - $349 for 8 lessons (you get a lesson for free for hosting!)

    • This locks in your day/time/instructor and location and prevents another family from purchasing

    • This payment covers the cost of your 1st swimmer’s lessons but is non-refundable if the group cancels.

    Participant Payments  - $399 for 8 weeks of lessons

    • This will be invoiced according to the participant information provided on the host form and will be due 1 week after invoice is sent.  Failure to pay or sign waiver by this date could result in cancellation of the swim party.

    When you enroll in our lessons, you are reserving a spot that is in high demand. By reserving this spot, you agree to pay for your reserved spot independent of your/your child’s attendance. SLWM will offer no refunds for classes you miss for any reason. In the event of lightning, your instructor will make the call and will work with you to reschedule.

  • Please submit a solo request at this link. Once signups are complete, we will do our best to add you as a stop along the route to get your swimmer in.

    If we are able to, we will also open up our single lesson booking portal as it gets closer to summer.

  • What if I don’t have 4 additional participants?

    • The majority of our travel swim families in the past have grouped together at neighborhood or backyard pools either with family, friends or neighbors. I recommend spreading the word to those interested that are nearby.

    What if I don’t have a pool?

    • You can book this same format at our summer outdoor location in Taylors, SC! We will provide the pool.
