On the day of the scheduled swim lesson, nonmember adult guardians (limit 2) will be allowed/required to escort the swimmer to the pool area. All swim students, both Members & Non-Members are required to check in at the Front Desk, each day with the students first and last name.

At all other times, children members who want to use the pool must be escorted by Member Adult Parent. Nonmember parents are not allowed to enter the Club to “watch” swimming or for any other reason.

Pool Use is reserved for Club Sport Members only. Participants in the Club Sport swim lesson program, who are not Club Sport members, are asked to wait in the viewing area until their classes start and are asked to exit the facilities upon completion of their swim class. Club Sport Member children are allowed to swim by themselves during the family swim hours if they are over the age of 7 and able to swim. Parents should remain in the viewing area during this time. While in the water, all children 6 and younger must have an adult guardian in the water with them. The adult guardian needs to be within an arm’s length of child at all times. Children 13 to 18 are allowed to use the pools per Club Sport Membership guidelines which include a Club Sport membership and a Club member guardian escort.

Makeup Lesson Policy

Pro-rated classes aren’t offered for missed lessons. We will do our best to work with you to meet your request for rescheduling missed lessons as a make-up lesson.

Per 10-week group lesson session, one make-up lesson is provided if availability permits. Make-up lessons are not guaranteed; if a lesson is missed and we do not have an available class time, the class is then forfeited. All make-up lessons must be completed within the session in which the original lesson was missed.

All make-up lessons will take place in the last three weeks of the session, meaning make-up lessons will not be scheduled until the last three weeks of the session. A written request by email is required to be sent to cssj-aquatics@clubsportfit.com to schedule a make-up lesson, make up lessons may not be scheduled over the phone or in person unless a written request is submitted first. If you request a make-up lesson before the last three weeks, the Aquatics Office will return your email during the make-up lesson period.

No more than one make-up lesson will be scheduled per student per session unless approved by the Aquatics Manager, Kaitlyn Allen.

Missed Class Policy

Consistent class attendance contributes to natural and fluid learning. The more classes your child attends, the smoother your child’s progress will be. Payment and enrollment is for an entire session, not individual classes in a “pay as you go” fashion. Therefore refunds, credits or substitutions for Group Lessons are not available.*

  • Missed classes will not be rescheduled, although we do encourage your child to attend class even if they arrive late. If late, student will be allowed in class for remaining time.
  • Refunds or credits for missed classes are not offered
  • If a student begins classes after the Session has already begun, the class cost will be prorated to the appropriate start date.
