Local Classes

A local class is attended by people who live in the area and come to class after work and on the weekends: Thursday night 6-9, Friday night 6:30-9:30, Saturday afternoon 3:30-6:30, and Sunday morning 10-1. Then skip a weekend (usually) and do it again.
Attend a class in:

Berkeley: in the San Francisco Bay Area: by MSI Graduate/Instructors!
Seattle: by a MSI-licensed instructor with her own swim school.
Northern New Jersey: by a MSI-trained instructor with his own swim school.
Tampa, FL: by a MSI-trained Graduate/Instructor with her own swim school.

"Class is not about teaching conventional adult Beginner lessons. Lays a foundation for adults afraid in water who can then build on this foundation with skills that come naturally."
- Sylvia Holm-Jensen, New York City

"It was worth the trip!"
- Maurizio Levazzari, Milan, Italy

"Let go of expectations and goals and just have fun. It works."
- Leslie Turner, Washington, D.C.

You'll learn with others who feel the same way you do. Take our Beginning Class over the course of 2-3 weeks. It consists of eight 3-hour classes, one hour on land followed by 2 hours in a warm pool.

Then come to Open Swim to practice (play) for 8 sessions during the following 8 weeks (1.25 hour with your classmates, no instruction) to add 10 more hours of pool time to play and embody your new comfort and skills. In Berkeley, the price is $1190 for the 34 hours and $1140 if you register 3 weeks or more in advance.
