Swim Lessons

The Downtown Athletic Club offers private and semi private swim lessons to both DAC Members and Guests. Our lessons are 30 minutes long and are customized to meet the needs of the swimmer. Private lessons are an amazing opportunity to see swimmers gain confidence, learn new skills, increase endurance while swimming, and become safe in the water.

Whether you or your swimmer are learning to blow bubbles or compete, we have an instructor for you!

Family Programs

Youth Swim Lessons

Youth swim lessons are offered for children starting around 2 years old. If you have a child that is younger, please do not hesitate to reach out as we might have availability at times for children who are younger. Starting lessons is a great way to teach children water safety skills and get them comfortable in the water!

Please see instructions below to book.

Adult Lessons

Swim lessons are available for adults of varying comfort levels in the water. Whether you are learning to get comfortable going under water to preparing to compete, we have an instructor for you!

Adult Swim and Stroke Lessons are available, dependent on instructor availability.

Please contact aquatics@downtownac.com to schedule your lesson.
