Serenity Swimming

Private swim lessons

Age: Private (1:1) Swim lessons for ages 3 to 99 years. 

Ability: All abilities from beginner to swim team- including fear, anxiety, and special needs.

Location: Indoor Hood College Pool (year round); we are in the process of building our own indoor facility near Frederick airport. Outdoor pools in Frederick and New Market. 

Availability: For Fall, availability Tue-Fri 10-3:30 using the indoor Hood College pool. Limited Sat options available; Sun is full. Limited, but extremely noisy/ crowded 3:30-5pm availability. Please be patient; trying to be pushy is not the right approach. We are working hard on opening the new facility. Once it is open, we will have amazing teaching conditions and excellent afterschool and availability (plus daytime).

Instructor: Consistent swim instructor, every single time! No worrying about whom will teach your child! Your instructor is a human (not robot) and has a family, sleeps and takes breaks. We value our instructors and will not overwork them- so this does mean that an instructor might not be available at your requested day/time.

Beliefs: Serenity Swimming believes children and adults learning to swim is a critical life skill. We teach swim lessons in a fun, positive, and safe manner. Using our best understanding of health and science, we prioritize taking the time to develop safe swimmers. Each private swim lesson is customized and designed around individual goals allowing for focused attention and allow for faster progress. 

Pricing: Lessons are $45 for 30 minutes. All lessons are 1:1 for safety.

I haven't heard back, should I reach out?: It depends. If you filled out Google form (embedded in the website) or email then, we are probably waiting for a spot that matches your availability and needs. If you reached out via Facebook, text or phone these are often hard to track/ slow response and you should reach out via email/ form. 

1 of our values is kindness and respect- demanding lessons, sending messages daily or believing your child is more important than other Frederick children will result in being skipped over for someone that is respectful (this has sadly happened).

As the season changes from Summer to Fall and your availability changes, then it is helpful to reach out via email or Google form/ contact us. If you have weekday daytime availability, please let us know- we can get you in immediately!

Why did I not hear back about Summer 2024? For Summer 2024, for every spot available, there was about 10-15 families requesting it. Some request had times and locations we could not accommodate. To keep lesson prices low, we currently do not have a dedicated admin and so responding to every single message has been challenging. We are doing the best we can. We prioritize our current families so the families can have continuous consistent lessons and high quality lessons. We bring in new families as we can. Quality swim lessons are important to us and we will not overwork instructors.
