Solar Swim & Gym

As we enter 2021, we look back at some of the great memories of the 2020 swim season with instructors and their students. Even though 2020 was a tough year for everyone, we are glad that we were able to be here for our students. They learned different ranges of skills, including: basic water safety, freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, butterfly, diving, and competitive swimming. We are very proud of our students' progress and we hope you enjoy the video as much as we do. Registration for 2021 lessons opens January 15th, 2021! Please fill out the pre-registration form here https://docs.google.com//1FAIpQLSd82lbUQW00sNmnxN/viewform.

In case you didn’t know, we also offer adult swim lessons. It’s never too late to improve your swimming capabilities and overall health.
