Frequently Asked Questions
-
When will the next session of lessons be posted?The home page will always display when the next bookings open. If there are no dates posted, that likely means we are mid-season and do not have any classes currently being offered.
-
How do I book?Under the booking tab on the website. When lessons are available, you must first choose the location. Then, choose the set. The title will tell you the name of your instructor, and the day of the week. Ex) Monday's with Alexis. Please read the box carefully as it includes important information. Once selected, you will be directed to choose to "add a participant" (make it a semi-private class) or skip if it's just one swimmer. Then you select your desired time slot, view the summary of your order, add your information and make the payment via credit card. Make sure the payment has been completed before closing the page.
-
What is the policy for makeup lessons?If there is an extenuating circumstance outside of our control that has to do with the pool we will do our best to accommodate a makeup class at another time, however it is not guaranteed. This includes pool being at capacity, closed for inclement weather, foul pool or any other unforeseen incident.
-
What if I can’t make a lesson?Lesson sets are booked and paid as full sets and cancellations are non-refundable. If you know you are unable to make it to a class in advance, you may let your instructor know ahead of time, but it is not mandatory.
-
Should I bring anything extra to my child's lessons?Goggles are encouraged if you have them, but no lifejackets or other equipment is required.
-
What type of lessons do you teach?We use a lesson plan designed to work on the fundamental skills first, like breathing and body position, which will get them swimming as soon as possible. Using play and imagination, we make learning new skills fun and every week is a different adventure. Every game or activity we practice contributes to the larger goals of getting your child comfortable in the water, swimming in deep water with ease, and safely making it from edge to edge swimming on their front or back (or both!)
-
Are you affiliated with the Lifesaving Society? Will my child receive badges at the end of their lessons?No, we are not affiliated with the Lifesaving Society and children will not receive badges at the end of the lesson. At Lifestyle, we teach lessons with a progression designed to get your child swimming with their face in and treading water as soon as possible.
-
Can any skill level be taught at any pool?We welcome swimmers of any level and swim ability to all of our facilities! However, the Warman Pool is only 5 meters in length, so we recommend that all swimmers comfortable swimming 10 meters or more at a time lessons with us at a public pool in Saskatoon, so they have more space to learn.
-
Can I enroll more than one child in swimming lessons at a time?If the kids are close in age and skill level, they may be in a semi-private lesson together at the same time. We recommend that private lessons with kids 6 years old and under take place in Saskatoon, where the public pools have a shallow end. Warman Pool is about 5 feet deep, and even with crates to assist for height, it is not recommended to have children under 6 years old together in a semi-private lesson in Warman.
