Private Lessons
Private lessons are available from the coaches listed below. Please contact them directly with requests!
The MFC pool will open for private lessons around mid May (date TBD) 2026 after practice. Some instructors may be able to visit backyard pools before then. Unfortunately we cannot do private swim lessons at MFC until the pool opens.
