How Do I Enroll?
You’re so close that swim lessons can become an easy after‑school or weekend activity — no different from soccer practice or music class.
Step 1 – Book a free trial class
Every new swimmer starts with a free 20–30 minute trial at our West LA pool. No cost, no commitment — just a real lesson.
Step 2 – Experience the short drive
From Palms, you’ll likely arrive early. Many of our Palms families say, “I had no idea you were this close to me.”
Step 3 – Get a skill assessment
Our instructor will evaluate your child’s comfort level in the water and recommend the right class: private, group, Parent-Tot, stroke development, or pre-team.
Step 4 – Choose a schedule that fits Palms life
We offer lessons 7 days a week, 9 AM to 8 PM (8 AM weekends). Popular options for Palms families:
Right after school (3 PM or 4 PM — easy drive from Palms Elementary or Clover)
Saturday or Sunday mornings (before weekend traffic builds)
Tuesday/Thursday evenings (light on National Blvd)
Step 5 – Watch your child become a confident swimmer
Once enrolled, you’ll have a weekly rhythm that adds maybe 15–20 minutes of driving round trip. A tiny investment for a lifetime skill.
