Swim Lessons at Flagstaff Athletic Club

PRIVATE / SEMIPRIVATE LESSONS

FAC offers private swim lessons all throughout the year! Private lessons are 1 to 1 with a swim instructor, semiprivate is 2 to 1. Our swim instructors can work on any aspect of swimming you are interested in improving or can work with our swim skills checklist to get you or your child to a proficient level. Recommended to start private lessons between 2.5-3 years old, Baby & Me classes are a perfect option to get comfortable in the water before starting private lessons.

Private/semiprivate lessons are the most popular swim lesson option, and we are doing our best to accommodate all private/semiprivate lessons requests as quickly as possible. Our private and semi-private lessons are currently full, and our swim lesson waitlist is at capacity. Please check back April 1st for Waitlist availability. Group swim lessons are available and a great alternative to private/semi-private lessons.
