Private and semi-private lessons are priced in groups of four lessons and are typically scheduled for 30 minutes or 1 hour. Swim Team Enhancement Lessons run in monthly sessions and are taught by Coach Nikita on Fridays at 4:00 pm. Swim Pro 45 Minute Private lessons run on Fridays from 5:00–7:00 pm and Saturdays from 12:30–4:00 pm. Private lessons do not run during group swim lessons and are available on weekends.

• Price: Level 1–4 spring sessions cost $255 for members and $300 for non-members per six-lesson session. Level 1–4 summer sessions cost $170 for members and $200 for non-members per four-lesson session. Private classes cost $295 per 4-day session for members and $325 for non-members.

Swim Team Enhancement Lessons are weekly small group sessions tailored to each participant’s personal goals and are described as particularly beneficial for older kids who aspire to join either Team B or Team A but need more experience. Swim Pro lessons are recommended for ages 13 and up and are available year round. The program teaches to each individual's skill set, even within a group setting, and focuses on teaching safety first and building upon basic skills. The curriculum and methods come from over 30 years of experience, and the program states that it will gently help children become water safe and develop a strong swimming foundation while having fun, encouraging children who are fearful without forcing them. The program does not allow floaties or life jackets during lessons, stating that the program emphasizes learning to swim independently without flotation devices because floaties or life jackets may interfere with skill development and proper technique. Families do not need to be members to sign up for swim lessons, but members receive a discount, and to receive member pricing, a child must be a member at the time of registration and for the duration of the lessons.

In February 2021, the APJCC merged with the Jewish Federation of Silicon Valley to form Jewish Silicon Valley. Jewish Silicon Valley is part of the Koret Initiative on Jewish Peoplehood, and the APJCC is described as a Jewish nonprofit community center that welcomes people of all faiths and works to enhance Jewish life in Silicon Valley while providing social, cultural, educational, and recreational services for the entire community.
