General Swim School Information

Luey’s Swim School offers small group swim lessons from a home pool in Palo Alto. The pool is enclosed and is heated to 90°F, so it is comfortable year round.

Lessons are held once a week for half an hour. Each class consists of four swimmers of similar age and ability. Classes run from 9am until 6pm, Monday through Thursday.

Swim sessions during the school year are divided into four sessions of approximately 7+ weeks each. Teacher Louise also offers a summer session during the summer months.

Beginner swimmers learn to float and become confident in the water.  Intermediate Swimmers move on to learning safety skills and stroke techniques. Once swimmers become proficient in the four strokes they are ready to “graduate” from Luey’s Swim School into swim teams and endurance programs in larger pools.

As with any sport, parents are encouraged to provide opportunities for their children to swim outside of their lesson time. Children who spend more time in a pool, whether its swim or play, develop confidence and progress at a quicker rate.
