All swim lessons are taught by certified, experienced staff members. Our lessons follow the Red Cross swim lesson program. Students will be evaluated the first day of lessons and moved to the appropriate lesson if necessary. We believe in offering concentrated swim instruction to our students, so we maintain an instructor to student ratio of 1:6.  Classes meet Monday - Thursday. To sign up for lessons please visit our online scheduling website for all GTCC Summer Programs.
