Please know your schedule before you register. Mistakes happen and I am happy to do what I can from my end to move you when you register for the wrong class, however, I cannot refund the 5% and the $.50 that Signup Genius takes.

If something comes up and you need to cancel and be refunded, ALL REFUNDS must be requested 2 weeks prior to the first day of the session. This allows me time to hopefully fill the spot. I do make exceptions for broken bones 😊

Below is a quick refresher on the levels at Wayside Swim School to help you select the correct level:l for your swimmer:

Level 1: Preschool level (sitting on stairs) is for ages 3-5. (Any student younger than 3 needs to be enrolled in a private lesson for safety purposes.) In this class we focus on comfort and playing while learning how to submerge, blow out underwater using our mouth and nose. How to kick with the board as well as the beginning muscle memory for front and back crawl arms.

Level 2: Beginner level (need to be able to stand in 2 1/2 ft water with head above) for students ages 5 and up or those who have passed level 1. Primarily focused on front crawl with correct side breathing, backcrawl and introduction to elementary backstroke.

Level 3: Intermediate level for those who can swim the length of the pool with front and back crawls without stopping. Will complete learning elementary backstroke and begin to learn sidestroke and breaststroke kick.

Level 4: Increase stamina for distance of front and back crawl, perfect sidestroke and breaststroke, introduction to butterfly stroke.
