All Levels (Ages 6 mths to 18 Years Old)
One-on-one, customized swim lessons are perfect for children who are at all phases of learning, and would like an individualized experience.
Adult Swim Academy
Our Adult Swim Academy is uniquely designed to meet the diverse needs of our adult clients. We offer private instruction that will provide swimmers of all levels the skills they will need to meet their individual goals.
We recognize that these needs can vary greatly, ranging from swimmers of various experience levels looking to become stronger and faster, to adults who have never learned to swim and are seeking to learn skills that will help them become comfortable in the water.
Adult A
(Ages 18 and older) is a 45 minutes beginner adult class. No experience is needed but must be able to stand in chest deep water. This class is designed to help swimmers gain basic aquatic skills and swimming strokes, including front crawl, breaststroke, and elementary backstroke. Swimmers will learn skills and concepts to be safe around the water, in addition to those needed to themselves or others in an aquatic emergency.
Worcester Fitness Flyers
The Worcester Fitness Flyers Swim Team is an extension of the comprehensive Swim Academy program at Worcester Fitness, and an opportunity to take your child’s swimming to the next level.
It will include quality professional technique-based instruction on the biomechanics of all 4 competitive strokes, starts, turns, competition strategies, efficiency in the water, and age-appropriate training practices. The Flyers swim team is for children ages 8-18.
We love Worcester Fitness! My daughter has been enrolled in the swim academy for a few months now and she loves it. The prices are very fair.
We also do private lessons with Coach Laura who is VERY knowledgeable on all aspects of swimming. She’s patient with my daughter. She is able to hold her attention and really teaches her in a way that she can understand. She makes learning fun all while helping my daughter with stroke technique along with helping her to build up strength and endurance.
The natatorium is kept very clean. The instructors wear masks in the pool and maintain social distancing as well as limiting the amount of people in the pool at one time. I was nervous to put my daughter into lessons again during this pandemic but she needed this outlet and I’m so happy she’s able to do something she loves in a safe and clean environment.
