Swim Lessons in Winter

Winter usually means colder and shorter days. For some parents, winter might also mean that their child’s favorite outdoor activity ended for the season, leaving them with a lot of extra bottled-up energy as everyone is stuck inside.

That’s why at Big Blue Swim School, we designed our winter swimming lessons program to cater to families year-round, with plenty of cozy amenities to help your child overcome the winter blues and learn skills that will last them a lifetime! Our swimming lessons in the winter are the perfect solution to keep kids active, engaged, and building confidence no matter the season.

Warm, Ultra-Clean Pool Water

After a long, cold day, who wouldn’t want to go for a dip in relaxing, warm water? While our pools for winter swimming lessons may not be quite as heated as a hot tub, we do keep our water at 90 degrees, which is perfect for optimal learning and comfort – even when it’s colder outside! Your child will remain comfortable throughout their entire swimming lessons in the winter without ever feeling too hot or too cold, so they can focus on having fun and improving their skills.

Thanks to our award-winning, LEED-certified water filtration system designed to remove the tiniest unwanted particles, you won’t need to worry about your child’s health at Big Blue. We even have advanced UV light sanitation to eliminate any remaining bacteria or viruses. After all, your child’s health and safety are our #1 concern!

Hair Drying Stations

If you’re worried about your child being too cold after their lesson, rest assured that won’t happen at Big Blue! Our special hair drying stations ensure no child catches a chill post-lesson.

Plus, they’re super fun for kids of all ages to practice drying their hair while you are right there to help them before heading home!

Plenty of Spacious Changing Rooms

We understand that nothing is worse than standing in a sopping wet swimsuit, waiting for an available changing room. With that issue in mind, we added plenty of individual changing rooms, preventing families from ever getting stuck waiting in their swimsuits and towels. At Big Blue, your child can head straight from the pool after their winter swimming lessons to a comfortable changing room!

We know that attending swimming lessons in the winter often involves multiple bags for items, like towels, water bottles, a change of clothes, etc., especially if you bring more than one child. Fortunately, our changing rooms are designed with abundant space, so your whole family can spread out and feel organized before and after class.

Comfortable WIFI Enabled Viewing Area

Who said winter swimming lessons are only for the kids?

Kick back, relax, or maybe even get some work done in our free WiFi-equipped lobby area. Our see-through wall, separating the lobby from the pool, allows you to watch your child unlock their BIG moments in the water. As soon as your child finishes their swimming lessons in the winter, you can celebrate their progress and start your post-swim routine together.

Why Winter Is the Perfect Time for Swim Lessons

Winter swimming lessons are the perfect way to keep kids active and engaged, improving their skills all year long. As outdoor activities come to a halt, swimming lessons in the winter provide a warm and inviting environment for children to burn energy, stay fit, and maintain their swimming abilities.

The colder months are ideal for skill retention. Without a seasonal gap, your child can continue building upon what they’ve already learned without backtracking when summer comes around. Plus, with fewer outdoor distractions, children can focus on learning in a structured and stimulating environment.

Parents also love that swimming lessons in the winter perfectly align with planning for upcoming vacations. Whether your family is heading to the beach, a resort, or a water park, starting lessons now ensures everyone is confident and safe in the water.

Staying Active and Warm During the Cold Months

Winter can make it hard to stay active, but swimming lessons at Big Blue Swim School are a fantastic way to prevent seasonal inactivity. Physical activity is crucial for growing children, and swimming offers a full-body workout that builds strength, endurance, and coordination. Regular physical activity is proven to boost mood and reduce stress—a benefit for both children and parents!

Winter swimming lessons also combat “cabin fever.” Instead of feeling cooped up inside, your child gets to splash, play, and enjoy themselves in a warm and welcoming pool. Swimming lessons are a perfect solution for parents seeking a productive and fun outlet for their child’s energy during the winter. They keep kids engaged, physically fit, and learning valuable life skills, all while staying warm and comfortable.
