Physical Distance Swim Lessons
for Unvaccinated Students
Due to COVID-19 we've suspended public group indoor classes.

private, safe, convenient
Book lessons in our Pool
book backyard lessons
Our innovative physical distance swim lessons allow us to safely teach water safety and swimming to unvaccinated students/guardians by combining teacher-led instruction, CDC distancing protocols and guardian participation.
  • Teacher and student, and/or guardian stay minimum 6' apart.
  • A guardian/competent swimmer provides physical support in the pool to any inexperienced swimmers.
  • The instructor structures and guides the lesson, demonstrates skills, and teaches the guardian how to support the student.
  • Touch points and equipment are sanitized after each student.

Outdoor group public classes: available only to vaccinated students
Outdoor guardian-assisted public classes: Available to students who are accompanied by a vaccinated guardian in the water.
Indoor group public classes: None available at this time.


New Jersey has published guidelines for outdoor pools and LifeCycle Swimming is following these protocols. For more information from the state of New Jersey about Covid-19 and swimming, click here.  According to the CDC: "There is no evidence that Covid-19 can be spread to humans through the use of pools or hot tubs. Proper operation, maintenance and disinfection (e.g. chlorine and bromine) of pools and hot tubs should remove or inactivate the virus that causes Covid-19."

During these unprecedented times, a pool can become a critical summer refuge, and can also help add structure to the day. Let us continue your family's water safety education to promote safe, fun and relaxation. Lessons can be held in our pool, or in your backyard pool. Read more about New Jersey's guidelines for opening up and swimming in outdoor pools here.
