About
APJCC Swim Lessons offers group swim lessons, private swim lessons, semi-private swim lessons, Swim Team Enhancement Lessons, and Swim Pro 45 Minute Private lessons.

Summer group swim lessons run June 8–August 7 with weekend availability, and all private lessons do not run during group swim lessons but are available on weekends. Swim Team Enhancement is taught by Coach Nikita on Fridays at 4:00 pm and offers weekly small group sessions tailored to each participant’s personal goals, and is particularly beneficial for older kids who aspire to join either Team B or Team A but need more experience. Swim Pro 45 Minute Private lessons are year-round, 45-minute, private one-on-one sessions taught by a certified instructor, offered on Fridays from 5:00–7:00 pm and Saturdays from 12:30–4:00 pm, where the coach works with each individual’s aquatic goals.
The program emphasizes learning to swim independently without floatation devices, and does not allow floaties or life jackets during lessons because they may interfere with skill development and proper technique. The program focuses on teaching safety first and building upon those basic skills, and its curriculum and methods come from over 30 years of experience. Instruction is tailored to each individual’s skill set, even within a group setting, and private and semi-private lessons follow the same teaching curriculum as group lessons but can be adapted to the swimmer’s particular needs. The program will gently help each child become water safe and develop a strong swimming foundation, will encourage children even if they are fearful without forcing them, and does not require families to be members to sign up, although members receive a discount for lessons.
