Ironwood Athletic: Club Swim
Swimming Lessons for all ages!667-2582.126
Program Description
Ironwood Athletic: Club Swim Programs are designed to allow our community members the opportunity to become water safe and to develop a love for being in the water. We love being able to safely enjoy our area lakes, rivers, streams, and pools; and we desire that for you and your family as well. Our experienced instructors strive to offer the very best to all who participate in classes.
Learning to swim and becoming water safe are skills that take time to develop, so our Club Swim program is a CONTINUOUS PROGRAM. This means once enrolled, your swimmer will stay enrolled until you inform us in writing that you wish to discontinue your lessons. This allows your swimmer to have time to develop swimming skills over time, rather than taking lessons for a few weeks, stopping, and then forgetting those skills.
