Private swim lessons are offered, when available, by the Wedgewood Swim Team to club members looking to learn water safety skills, work towards passing the club’s “Green Tag Test” to swim in all areas of the club’s pools, or to develop or improve strokes required to compete in swim meets.
​
The Purpose of this page and lessons format is to condense the process for parents who are seeking instructors at the club, and club employees who are looking to offer lessons as an additional service outside of their primary duties. This also helps keep similar lesson times & rates for all instructors, and to provide a fair process for finding available instructors and lessons at the swim club.
​
INSTRUCTORS include members of the coaching staff, lifeguard staff, and high-school aged members of the team with swim instruction experience.
​
Availability for lessons and instructors may vary over the course of the summer, as instructors are unable to provide lessons during swim practices or lifeguarding shifts.
SCHEDULE
beginning JUNE 14TH Lessons may be scheduled during the club’s full-time operating hours (12pm - 8pm). This means lessons are given while other members are also using the pools and lap lanes, which could potentially affect the space available for the instructors to use.
between 12pm-2pm is typically considered the most available time for instructors as well as off-peak hours for pool crowds. However, late afternoon & early evening lessons may also be scheduled with available instructors.

To join the list of private (one-on-one) or group (2-4 swimmers per instructor) lesson swimmers, click the link at the bottom of this page and complete the interest form, noting any preferred dates and times that work best with your schedule in addition to information about your swimmer.
​
Instructors will then be paired with swimmers on a first come, first served basis, and connected to you via email to create a schedule based off you and your instructor's availability.
​
PLEASE NOTE- completing the interest form does not guarantee lessons or a lessons instructor, as the number of instructors available and their respective schedules vary each week. Once all instructors have their schedules filled through the month of June, an email will be sent to all swimmers who were not yet paired with an instructor, with information on any possible availability in the months of July and August to be given then.
