Event Date
Student Swim Lessons
As of Friday, March 5th, Student Swim Lesson Registration is OPEN!
Beginning March 30th 2021, the Aquatics Unit is excited to introduce Student Swim Lessons at the UC Davis Rec Pool. These lessons are for all UC Davis Students, and all lessons are catered to your ability. Whether you’re looking for tips and tricks to get you to the other end of the pool OR if you’re a competitive swimmer looking for an edge, Aquatics have the instructors for you.
Entry to the Spring Quarter Swim Lessons cost $80 for 10 lessons. Swim Lessons are once-a-week starting the week of March 29th and finishing the week of May 29th. You will sign up for a certain swim time (group-see below) and each group maxes out at 3 swimmers (each swimmer receives their own lane). There are 12 spaces TOTAL for Spring Quarter so make sure you register today, here!

What do I bring to my swim lesson?
You will need to bring a few things to your Swim Lesson:
· Swim Suit
· Goggles
· Swim Cap (If you have one)
· Water Bottle
· Towel
· Pool Buoy/Kickboard (If you have them)
