learn 2 swim

Program Overview

The CATS Learn 2 Swim program offers swim lessons that feature small groups, a staff of certified lifeguards, clear objectives, and expectations for each group level! We will again offer pre-season swim workshops for all ages and abilities at CSTC. Sign-ups for the 2023 Learn 2 Swim program will begin on Friday, June 9th at 8pm and will be completed on-line with web pay! Details for this summer’s swim lesson sign-up will be available via CSTC social media, the website and distributed via email.

Group Lessons

We will run group swim lessons from June 19th through the middle of August. The final three weeks that the pool is open you will be able to sign up for individual lessons with our teachers directly. Our group lessons are Monday through Friday (5 days in a row) and each session will be one week long. We have 9 weeks/sessions of morning lessons this summer!

Each group session will include 150 minutes of lesson time each week. Our goal is to keep class size small (6 to 1 ratio) in order to create an environment that allows our students feel supported and are comfortable to grow at their own pace. Space is limited and our on-line sign up will close 48 hours prior to the start of each weekly session. The Learn 2 Swim Director will determine if a make-up session is needed due to excessive cancelations during a weekly session due to weather related pool closings. Each session is $75 per swimmer. All fees are nonrefundable.

Private Lessons

Private and Semi-private group lessons for children and adults are available during the summer at CSTC. These lessons will be conducted outside of the scheduled Learn 2 Swim programs.

You are encouraged to contact the director at learn2swimCATS@gmail.com to coordinate and find a teacher that best fits your child’s needs.

Junior cats swim program

Our JUNIOR CATS swim program has officially joined with the CATS SWIM TEAM! The newly created Evening Swim Team is designed for swimmers who have graduated from our Learn 2 Swim lessons program and are not able to participate in morning CATS swim team practices. Eligible swimmers will participate in the full swim team season and will also qualify to swim at all swim meets. Space is limited! We have hired the CATS swim team coaches to run the Evening Swim Team. The Evening Swim Team is $275 per for the entire swim season (8 weeks). Practices are 45 minutes and will run on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings. Evening Swim Team members must be able to perform a few basic safety/swimming techniques in order to be eligible for this class. Participants must be able to swim independently in the water and have a high level of confidence while in the pool. It is vital for safety reasons that our swimmers can navigate their way through the pool without a coach standing next to them. Students must be able to swim multiple lengths of the pool during class while unassisted to participate in the group. The Learn 2 Swim director reserves the right to move participants out of this group if necessary.

Registration

The 2023 GROUP SWIM LESSON registration and payment process will be completed online. Sign up will go live beginning Friday, June 9th at 8pm. Additional information can be received if you contact Coach Karen at learn2swimCATS@gmail.com GROUP SWIM LESSONS at CSTC are available to CSTC members only.

GROUP LESSON SIZE

Each class is limited to 6 students per instructor. This will allow more instructional time for each student during their training session. If we have a group that has exceeded 6 students, there will be a second teacher assigned.
