When can I start lessons? ▼
We have open enrollment, you can start as soon as we have openings that match your availability!
How young should my child start lessons? ▼
Ages can act as guidelines, however we believe that developmental stages are more telling of a child’s readiness. If your child is crawling it is a great time to start our parent-tot program and if your child is walking and it is a great time to start our infant survival swim program (we do recommend 28 months and younger being introduced to our environment through the parent-tot program before starting private swim lessons).
How long are our lessons? ▼
Our private lessons are usually 15 minutes long. We also offer 30 minute lessons for older and advanced students; we recommend starting in 15 minute slots as our program is more intensive than most and we believe this is the ideal amount of time for most children in private swim lessons. Our group lessons are 30 minute slots.
Can I pick any program? ▼
Each of our programs are designed with specific skill levels in mind and our recommendations are based on which program puts your child in the best place to be successful.
How long will it take my child to learn to swim? ▼
This varies from child to child based on experience, developmental stage, and personality around water, however an average age for a young, beginner swimmer to learn our survival skills is typically 20-30 consistent lessons.
What are Oklahoma Swim Academy’s hours of operation? ▼
Our swim lessons are taught between 9:00 am-7:00 pm Mondays-Fridays, as well as 9:00am to 1:00 pm on Saturdays.

OTHER QUESTIONS
Are your lessons indoor or outdoor? ▼
Our swim lessons are taught year-round out of indoor, warm-water pools.
Can I take photos or video during swim lessons? ▼
We love for kids progress to be celebrated and remembered; we do ask that you request permission from your instructor before doing so. We do have customers who have requested not to be included in photos or video and it is important that we respect their privacy.
What is the swim diaper policy? ▼
Any swimmer that is not 100% toilet trained MUST wear 2 diapers, a regular swim diaper and a reusable swim diaper before they enter the water. We have both types of swim diapers available for purchase poolside. Any non-swim diapers should not be worn in the pool. *Children should not swim if they have diarrhea or have had diarrhea in the past 48 hours.
What do I do if my child cries? ▼
We understand that babies and toddlers are hardwired to communicate by crying. Even the most reluctant child will develop a comfort level in the water with time. It’s important to remember this and trust our trained instructors to care for your child and help with this transition. Three lessons is the average amount of time it takes for the instructor to stop being a stranger and a relationship to develop. If you do have a tearful child, we recommend stepping into our viewing area so that your child can build a bond with the instructor, be aware your attitude will set the tone for all the lessons to follow. Be patient and stay with it. Ultimately, this approach shortens the time it takes for your child to adjust to lessons.
