learn 2 swim

WELCOME to the 2025 CATS LEARN 2 SWIM LESSON SEASON!

We are pleased to offer a number of great swim programs at the Crofton Swim and Tennis Club!  Our CATS LEARN 2 SWIM program features smaller groups, a staff of trained lifeguards and passionate swim instructors, clear objectives and expectations for each level, a knowledgeable and accessible program director, and weekly swimmer progress reports!  

Group swim lessons from June 16th through the middle of August.  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 to feel supported and are comfortable to grow at their own pace.  Space is limite,d 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 cancellations during a session, due to weather-related closings.  Each session is $85 per swimmer.  All fees are nonrefundable. 

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 programs.  You are encouraged to contact the director at learn2swimCATS@gmail.com to coordinate.   

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 L2S director reserves the right to move participants out of this group if necessary. 

The 2025 GROUP SWIM LESSON registration and payment process will be done online. Sign-up will go live beginning Tuesday, June 10th, at 8:00 p.m.  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.  Participants must be fully potty-trained to be in the main pool for lessons.

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.  

Please feel free to contact the CATS LEARN 2 SWIM program director, Coach Karen, with any questions throughout the summer.  learn2swimCATS@gmail.com
