Class Times and Prices

The Rodale Aquatic Center promotes civic health and wellness in our community through a variety of quality programming. Our Swim School follows the American Red Cross’ nationally recognized Learn to Swim Program, with additional tools to aid in progression development. Private, semiprivate and group classes are offered to swimmers of all ages and abilities. Classes focus on improving swimming skills and include first aid and basic water safety.

There will be no fee charged to the parent or guardian, but they must complete a “waiver and agreement to participate” form.
