Summer Season 2012 Registration Begins, Monday, May 7th at 9am

Hello Past & Future Swim Students and Families!

It's hard to believe, but Swim Lesson time is almost upon us!

First of all, our first Session of Swim Lessons starts early this year:  Session I begins the week of May 21st with registration opening on Monday, May 7th at 9am!  Please see our proposed lesson schedule page. We will need a minimum of 5 students to hold class as posted.  We will do our best to combine or keep any changes to a minimum.

Secondly, we have a few changes you should be aware of:

  • Classes are now offered Mon/Wed, Tues/Thurs. and Wed/Friday.  Trent's waterlogged body after teaching from 7am until 3pm on Saturdays was not healthy!  We think we have discovered a way to offer almost the same number of classes, with a more consistent lesson schedule.   Notice that the registration form now includes a calendar that will cover our summer lesson schedule for all 3 sessions. Due to family events and responsibitliies, we are unable to teach into August without having a 2 week break in the middle of a session.  We opted to begin lessons earlier in May to allow for this.
  • We have always registered our students with the Red Cross.  In order for Trent to maintain his classification as a Red-Cross Water Safety Instructor, it is required.  Last Fall, the Red-Cross began charging a fee to do this.  Course fees have increased to include this fee to $35 a 6 class session.  
  • We will offer an Adult class with 6, 45 minutes  lessons on Fridays over Sessions I and II for $35 for any one interested.
  • Rather than allow an extra week in between sessions in case of poor weather, we have opted to do in-door safety and stroke instruction with videos in the event of dangerous weather conditions (lightning, etc.)   
  • In the event that weather really throws us off, or we need a make-up class, we will offer  a Saturday morning make-up during the session.
Please email us at LittleFlippersSwimAcademy@gmail.com to request a registration form in pdf format.  In order to register, complete the registration form with requested class and deliver or mail with payment to us at 7116 So Case Mountain Cove, West Jordan, UT 84081.  Spots will be filled on a first come first served basis. We will start a waiting list for a 2nd LTS Level Class as needed on Wed/Friday. Many classes fill up quickly so please register as soon as possible.  Payment and registration is required to hold spot.

New Students and continuing students who are unsure of placement should call to arrange a time for free placement testing as soon as possible.    Some continuing students may have forgotten skills and may benefit from continuing in the last class they attended regardless of whether they completed all skills last summer.   Our first placement testing will be  Saturday, May 5th with times starting at 1pm.  Please call, if you haven't already to schedule if you are interested.

We look forward to seeing you soon!

Please call or e-mail us with any questions or to schedule placement testing at 801-282-5965.
