About
The Purchase College Aquatics Program runs year round and offers children's group lessons, adult lessons, and specialty programs to more than 1400 participants each year.
All lessons are taught by American Red Cross Water Safety Instructors and follow the American Red Cross Learn-to-Swim guidelines. Lessons are given in our beautiful and comfortably heated six-lane pool and diving well. Various discounts are offered and noted in our brochure and site. Most swim levels are given during each daily session so siblings of varied ages and abilities can be in different classes during the same time period. Swimming is a great lifelong skill that will help equip you to enjoy the aquatic environment safely as you enhance your fitness level and your quality of life. |
