    FAQ

    How can I contact you?

    For any questions text or call us at 770-688-0667, or you can send an email to oconeeflippers@gmail.com

    Do you offer make-up classes?

    If your child is sick we do offer makeup classes. Text us at 770-688-0667 to reschedule.

    What should we bring to class?

    Bring a towel and a pair of goggles for your child.

    Can my swimmer wear goggles?

    For kids ages 2 and above we recommend they bring goggles to class! We also have children practice swimming without goggles so they do not become too reliant.

    Can I request a specific instructor?

    With our online scheduling system, you can request an instructor based on availability.

    Can I watch the swim lesson?

    We have plenty of chairs for parents to watch the class! For some younger children, we recommend the parents leave the room so the children are not distracted.

    Can we come early or stay late after lessons to practice?

    If you would like to come to the pool and practice we recommend getting a pool membership. Information on pool memberships can be found at https://www.oconeeaquatics.com/memberships

    What happens if weather causes classes to be canceled?

    If classes are to be canceled customers will receive a refund for the class. We have 2 indoor pools so outdoor classes will be moved inside in case of rain.

    ​How long will it take for my swimmer to learn?

    Our lessons are for fast-progression learning. If your child is comfortable putting their face in the water they can learn to swim in just a few sessions! If your child is more fearful of putting their eyes in this will take extra practice and encouragement!
