Swim Lessons - Winter/Spring 2006
The Twinsburg Fitness Center will be offering American Red Cross swimming lessons for all ages.  The following course descriptions and schedules cover ALL swim lessons offered.  Please note that as the levels progress, it is not unusual for a child to repeat a level several times.  Remember that each child is unique and is evaluated on their swimming ability, not age.  If you are not sure about what level to place your child into,  please feel free to ask theAquatic Manager and staff.  Please observe all swimming lessons from the pool balcony.  There will be no refunds or make-ups for missed classes.  Non-Residents may register 2 weeks before the class begins.
