Boston Swim Lessons
*At this time, all instructors are fully booked and are not taking on new swim clients
The Club offers year-round swimming lessons for both children and adults. Our certified swim instructors teach all ages and ability levels. Whether you or your children are a beginner or are more advanced, our instructors can help you reach your swimming goals.
Children will benefit from swim lessons in multiple ways as they develop the lifelong skill of swimming and basic water safety techniques. Learning to swim builds confidence in their abilities and increases safety around all bodies of water. The skills they acquire will keep them safe for years to come and allow them to fully enjoy themselves at pool parties, beaching, and boating activities. They’ll get stronger and build endurance as they learn to master swimming in a fun environment. Also, Mom and Dad can rest easy knowing certified instructors with years of experience are teaching their little ones the proper way to swim. Let our teachers do the work so you don’t have to worry about it!
Adult beginners will first learn to overcome any fears they might have of the water. Then our instructors will teach you the basic skills you need to survive in the water and then progress you as you are ready. Adults with a little more experience will be taught new strokes or improve on ones they already know. If you’re already a competitive swimmer then our instructors will design smart and challenging workouts so you can improve your performance in the pool.

Boston Lifeguard Training
The American Red Cross lifeguard training course will teach lifeguard candidates the skills and knowledge needed to prevent and respond to aquatic and pool-related emergencies. The course content and activities prepare candidates to quickly recognize and efficiently respond to emergencies in order to prevent drowning and injuries. CCRP offers this course in a Blended Learning format, combining classroom time with at-home online components. This convenient format allows participants to complete the American Red Cross lifeguard standard hours required for the certification. Because the online learning portion of the class must be completed before the classroom portion, enrollment will end 7 days before the start date of the class.
Become an American Red Cross Certified Lifeguard
Upon successful completion of the lifeguarding course, you will receive American Red Cross Lifeguarding/First Aid/CPR & AED for the Professional Rescuer certifications, all valid for 2 years.
Class is limited to 12 participants and must have a minimum of 6 students to be held.
Participants must be 15 on or before the last scheduled session of the course.
Cost for Full Certification $400.
Reimbursements, minus a $50 non-refundable registration fee, are only granted for documented medical conditions and withdrawal requests made at least two weeks prior to the class start date.
