Ms Kathy’s Swim School

Swim materials are on their way from Amazon and I have been refreshing myself on swim lessons/videos after a few years off from teaching swim! I wanted to be sure I had done that piece first to refresh myself on the lessons and techniques before scheduling any swim lessons! :)

All that to say, I am I ready to start scheduling lessons! I am scheduling for beginning swimmers with a Swim 100 lesson. I would be working on breath holding/control, freestyle kick, back kick, and swimming with a pop-up breath and basic freestyle fundamentals for those that are ready. It's all about getting comfortable moving in the water on their own and getting their face wet.
Cost: $175 for 8 lessons (30 minutes each)

It may be a little difficult to maintain a set schedule for me depending on what is happening during each week. My typical week will have these days/times available:

Monday afternoons 1:00-5:00
Tuesday/Thursday afternoons 2:00-4:30
Wednesdays 10:30-3:30
Fridays 10:30-3:30

I would need a 30 minute time frame for lessons, and then keep in mind I would have travel time between locations if I'm trying to schedule more than one on a day.

This upcoming week is a week that I have a lot going on so I'm UNAVAIABLE (this upcoming week) on Monday, Wednesday (except could probably do a late afternoon after my hair appointment), and unavailable Friday until after 1:30 but could probably do any lessons until about 4:30. Please message me to let me know a couple day/times you'd prefer! Let's try to get at least the first 4 lessons on the calendar and then we can adjust schedule if needed and schedule the other 4 after the first few lessons. I also have a registration form I'd love to have filled out so I will send it at that time as well when you message me.

Sorry for the delay in information regarding swim lessons! It’s been less than relaxing since school has ended with back to back trips with another one this weekend and starting my summer job next week! Bear with me as I get the swim lessons figured out ❤️.

Right now I would look at doing lessons M/W/F during the day time. We can work out timing between us since they will be private lessons.

A session would consist of 8 lessons that are 30 minutes each (preferably done 2-3x a week) and would cost $175 for the entire session. That comes out to less than $22 per lesson! Please let me know if you are still interested and we will work on scheduling! 🙂 I would not begin lessons until at least June 15.

Attention to my 2s class parents! I am looking at offering swim lessons for my students from this school year. I can come to your pool depending on location. Please let me know if you have interest and I will work out the details for cost and such! 🙂

Unfortunately, I will not be doing swim lessons this summer. We are getting ready to PCS to Hawaii 🍍🌊🌴🌺 Our Army life may bring us back to Maryland in a couple years, but until then, if anyone is now located in Oahu as well or moves in the near future, please reach out! If there is a pool for me to use in your community on the island, I would be happy to continue teaching swim lessons!

NEW OPENING! Aug 1-5, 8-10 at 10:30 for a preschool beginner swimmerWe are set to move all lessons to 11:30 ***UPDATE: NOW FULL!***

I had a sibling pair signed up at this time, but the older sibling is now able to swim short distances in the pool and no longer needing to do lessons with the younger sibling. If you're interested in joining another preschool student in lessons at this time, I can take up to 2 more kids during this lesson.

STILL OPEN: 1:00 July 25-28, Aug 1-4 for a swimmer ready to move on to swim 200 to learn freestyle and backstroke. Prerequisite to this less is being able to swim 15 feet on own without floatation device and using pop up breath.

ALL OPEN TIME SLOTS ARE NOW FULL. The only lesson time I have available is a group lesson time available July 25-28 & Aug 1-4 at 1:00
***This is ONLY for kids 5+ yrs old that is on the cusp of being ready for swim 200 level. The prerequisite for this group lesson is to be able to swim at least 15 feet (3-5 years old) or 25 feet (6+ yrs old) with their face in the water, kicking, and using a pop up breath WITHOUT assistance. I had a swimmer this month who is on this cusp and about ready for that next step so I have her scheduled at this time and looking for others that might be ready for this next phase. In swim 200 I teach them side breath, freestyle stroke, and back stroke. We also start to introduce treading water***

NEW BEGINNING SWIM LESSONS TIMES FOR JULY/AUGUST!

My June schedule is still full, and July is almost full due to taking a couple weeks off in July with family visiting. Below is what I have available the rest of the summer. You're welcome to schedule a time slot as a private lesson ($90) or if you're open to a group lesson with others ($75), please let me know when you message me so I can include others (I will only do up to 3 kids in a group) for that time slot.

I will not be doing any other lessons after August 10, due to vacation plans. If I have any cancellations for those already scheduled in July and have openings, I'll post here on the page when that occurs!

My June is now full aside from one slot left in a Tu/Th group lesson that is 11:45-12:15 starting next week and going into the first two weeks of July. If you're interested in joining this group, please let me know! I will be posting my schedule for July hopefully in the next week. Waiting to see when I might have family visiting that month before I schedule lessons.

I have some lessons available the last two weeks of June! You can form a group with siblings or friends, or sign up for private lessons. The time I have available is 12:30-1:00. This is for 8 consecutive lessons that will span those last two weeks of June (any 8 week days that work best for you during those weeks). If interested in a Mon/Wed lesson at 11:45-12:15 that goes into July, please let me know!

*** Update: The 12:30 spot is now taken for June. Still have a Mon/Wed 11:45 time open for anyone for a group or private lesson ***

Happy summer! I have one beginner swimmer that is 5 years old scheduled for 11:45-12:15 on Tuesday/Thursday starting next week. If anyone is interested in joining her for a group lesson, please message me! Would prefer other kids that are 4-6 years in age and beginning swimmer too needing to start with the basics. Will only take 1 or 2 other kids to form a group.
*** update: I have one more spot available for this time frame****
