Swim Lessons
Merrifield Pool offers the American Red Cross Learn-to-Swim program and follows its curriculum for eight lessons per session. Class size ratios are kept at five students to one instructor.
- Parent/Child sessions are for ages 6 months to 2 years and focus on the child feeling comfortable in the water as well as learning safety skills underwater.
- Learn to Swim focuses on six levels that teach basic movement to advanced stroke techniques.
- Preschool sessions are for ages 3 to 5 and offer three skill levels that work on the beginning motions of movement in the water as well as safety techniques.
Lessons are Monday-Friday, with eight lessons per session. The last Friday of each lesson will be a family swim so participants can show off their new skills. Cost is $50 per session.
