Adaptive Aquatics
Adapted swim lessons are designed for participants ages 4-18 who identify with having a disability. Lessons are one-on-one with the instructor and focus on building comfort and proficiency in the water. Participants must go through a referral process prior to scheduling. This program accepts waivers. All lessons are ½ hour sessions scheduled once a week. Due to pool space, we may not be able to accommodate lessons Monday-Thursday 4:00 PM-6:00 PM. Lessons are scheduled based on instructor availability.
Adaptive (1 swimmer) and Co-adaptive (2 swimmers, siblings only) Lessons are available. To schedule a lesson or learn more, email Kristen Schmalfeldt, Recreation & Aquatics Coordinator or call 414-967-8325
