First Swim Lessons for Fate Kids
For Fate families with young children, Waterview offers private swim lessons at our heated pool in Rowlett. Every lesson is one child, one instructor, for 50 minutes, so a first-time swimmer gets an instructor’s full attention.
We also teach teens and adults, late May through mid-August 2027, Monday through Saturday, 9 AM to 7 PM, by appointment.

Is My Child Ready?
We like to start at age 5, but readiness really depends on the child: their maturity, their strength and their willingness to try something new. Good signs include following simple instructions from an adult other than you, curiosity about the water, and staying focused for a short activity.
A nervous first-timer is completely normal; building comfort and trust is part of the lesson. Read What Age Should Kids Start Swim Lessons?

12-Lesson Package

Registration Fee
What the First Lessons Look Like
We start with water comfort and breathing, then floating on the front and back, then moving forward and swimming back to the wall on their own.
A single lesson is $65. Prepay the 12-lesson package for $780 and we waive the registration fee ($50 per swimmer, $100 max per family). Choose the 12-lesson package and our Guarantee to Swim covers you, whether the swimmer is an adult or a child age 5+: if the swimmer cannot swim unassisted back to the pool edge after 12 lessons, the next 2 lessons are free.
