When you open the application you will first have to fill out personal information. There is an option to skip this if you have taken lessons from me before. Hopefully, this makes application easier for those who are returning! You will then be asked to pick what kind of lessons you want. This year I am offering 3 types of lessons: group, semi-private and private. All lessons are for 3 days: Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Please reserve Thursday in case of thunderstorms. GROUP lessons are $50 total, 30 minutes long, and have 3-6 students and 1-3 instructors in the pool at a time. SEMI-PRIVATE lessons are $55 total, 25 minutes long, and have 2-3 students and 1-2 instructors in the pool at a time. This is great for siblings or friends. PRIVATE lessons are $65 total, 20 minutes long, and will have 1 student and 1 instructor (Miss Katelyn) in the pool at a time. You will then be asked to fill out what weeks you are available. This is a preview of my 2023 schedule:

Finally, there is a place for you to leave any additional comments or questions.
After the application closes, I will put all of the applications in a bowl and hold a raffle drawing until all of the spots are full. This will take several days and I will continue posting updates on my Facebook page. Once all spots are full, I will email everyone who did not get a spot. If any spots open up throughout the spring and summer those who applied, but did not get in, will be contacted first.
