Private Swim Lessons
Instructor Tier System
Learn more about our tiered instructor program below to customize your swimming lesson experience!
Tier 1 Instructors
Tier 1 Instructors are trained to deliver high-quality learn-to-swim lessons using the same skill progressions and safety lessons swimmers receive in our Group Lesson program, while tailoring each lesson to the ability level and goals of the participant. They range in experience levels from instructors just beginning their career in Swim Instruction to five (5) years of experience. All of our instructors go through a significant training process before teaching lessons on their own and are continually mentored by our management team and other Tier 2 Instructors.
Our Tier 1 Instructors typically work with swimmers age 3 through teens on typical learn-to-swim lessons or competitive swim team prep.

Tier 2 Instructors have extensive experience teaching swimming lessons, hold advanced certifications, and/or additional training to work with specialized populations (e.g. individuals with additional or unique needs or with specific competitive swimming goals).

Private Learn-to-Swim Prep Lessons
Ages 2 years - 3 years
A transitional 1:1 lesson program for children ages 2 to 3 years old focusing on foundational swimming skills, water safety concepts, and learning the basics of being in swim class. These classes offer a shorter timeslot for the shorter attention spans of our youngest swimmers and allow for small bursts of instruction.
These 15-minute lessons are taught by our Tier 2 instructors who specialize in working with young children. We encourage at least two lessons per week to see maximum results!
These lessons are currently available with Elise S.-F. or Emily S. by request only. Please contact us if you're interested in this program!
Private Learn-to-Swim Lessons
Ages 3+
Taught in a 1:1 setting, our swim instructors work with child and adult swimmers on water competency and safety skills. Swimmers can continue building on these basic water skills based on their goals, whether that be working toward joining swim team, or learning a specific stroke.
Our Private Lessons are 30 minutes in length and sold individually. See the Instructor Tier Information below for more information.

DSA Swim School does not arrange partners for semi-private lessons. Semi-Private Lessons are subject to our Instructor Tier Pricing.

Create-Your-Own (CYO) Group Lessons
Ages 3+
Create-Your-Own (CYO) Group Lessons are taught using the same curriculum used in the Group Lesson Program, but families can arrange for a group of three (3) to four (4) swimmers of similar ages and ability levels to learn together on a more flexible schedule than our traditional program. CYO Group Lessons are subject to our Instructor Tier Pricing.
Please contact us at DSASwimSchool@DuPontCC.com directly to arrange semi-private lessons.
Competitive Lessons
Ages 6+
Taught by either our DSA Swim School Instructors or our DSA Competitive Swim Team Coaches, these lessons assist swimmers in reaching their competitive swimming goals through focused technique and/or endurance work. Swimmers should be familiar with all 4 competitive strokes.
