Status of all CRS classes  | Learn To Swim Course Descriptions

The CRS Learn to Swim Program has classes for ages 6 months to adult. Classes will be offered either twice a week for 4 weeks or once a week on Saturdays for 8 weeks. Each session is 30-40 minutes in length. Courses are taught by American Red Cross Water Safety Instructors. Register Online  or at the Member Services Desk in the CRC. For more information, please call 301-405-PLAY.

Each course has a limited number of spaces available on a first-come, first-served basis. When a course fills, CRS will take names on a waitlist for spaces that may become available due to cancellations. If space becomes available and the participant  is accepted, the participant will have until the end of the next business day to complete the registration form and pay the required fee. If you are completing your registration online a CRS representative may specify a designated time allotment for online enrollment.

ATTENTION:

Parents must be in the water with children in the Parent and Tot course. Parents must be on the pool deck bleachers for any other courses for children. The Parent and Tot course is age restricted (children must be placed in the course by age). A child must successfully complete the Preschool course before enrolling in Level I (Guppies).

Parents that are unsure as to what level to place a child in may request a free Level Assessment by calling Ms. Carrie Tupper at (301) 226-5383. Level Assessments generally take 10-15 minutes, and the child will get in the water.
