Can I stay and watch the float lessons?

Parents are welcome to be in the pool area to watch, as long as their presence is not a distraction to the child. Alternatively, there is a monitor with a live-feed of the pool in the waiting area. In order for our coaches to effectively teach they need the child's full attention and trust. We kindly ask parents to move to an area where the child cannot see them if the child is distracted.

What is Float 4 Life's lesson make-up policy?

Make-up lessons are self-service and on a first-come, first-served basis. Please contact your child's coach for scheduling.

At what age can I register my child for float lessons?

Float lessons are offered to children as young as 6 months old.

How long will it take for my child to learn how to float?

Our goal is for your child to be able to jump or fall into water and recover to a back float, fully clothed and without assistance from their coach. The number of lessons it will take to accomplish this will depend on:

• How consistent you are with scheduling lessons
• Your child's comfort level
• Your child’s individual personality
• Your child’s coordination and physical development

What should I bring to the lesson?

• All students under the age of 3 are required to wear a swim diaper, no exceptions

Should my child eat before a float lesson?

Please do not feed your child or give them milk or juice one hour before a lesson. If your child is frightened or cannot hold their breath, not eating 3 hours prior is preferred. Nervous children often swallow air and potentially water which may cause them to vomit.

How frequently should I schedule my child’s lessons?

Each child is different and our program is designed to accommodate individual needs to optimize learning. Please take your child’s comfort level into consideration when making these decisions. If your child is frightened, we recommend scheduling lessons as frequently as possible.

Can I schedule all of my children at the same time?

Lessons are one-on-one with coaches. Lessons may be able to be scheduled at the same time if more than one coach is available.
