Hi Parents!
I am so thankful for all of you who signed up your children for lessons in 2024. I am proud to tell you I worked with over one hundred children and their families again this year and I look forward to a similar experience next year. I apologize in advance for the length of this post as it has all the information you need to plan for lessons in 2025.
My 2025 season will kick off officially in March/April depending on the weather. Lessons at my pool may be held between the hours of 9am-5pm. Lessons at private pools may be held between 8-9am and between 1130am-130pm. Some times may not be available during the year to mitigate weather issues.
Parents of students who were not able to complete the course during 2024 due to weather please contact me so we can schedule the completion of the course as soon as the weather permits.

In 2024 a few more families took advantage of weekly maintenance lessons. I will continue offering maintenance lessons in 2025 for returning students and for those who complete the lessons during the year. Maintenance lessons will start on March 31. Maintenance lessons will be available at my pool at 10/1010/1020am and at 440/450pm. Availability will be released weekly via signup genius and GroupMe.
Maintenance lessons at your pool will be scheduled on a case by case basis, outside the times listed above.
Returning maintenance students need to schedule a week refresher during one of the refresher sessions in February or March before starting maintenance lessons.
Registration for the 2025 season will open on January 1, 2025 for returning students and January 10, 2025 for new students.
Please do not send requests before January 1 as they will not be considered and will be placed at the end of the queue.
To register:
1- Email me with your desired start date and time.
2- Once time and date are established, send a deposit for the first week of lessons to secure the spot.
- $120 for lessons at my pool
- $250 for lessons at your pool in the South Tampa area
- Venmo preferred. Also accept PAYPAL and Cashapp.
3- Once I receive the deposit I will confirm the spot.
Please be advised that your deposit is non-refundable, as I am blocking that time for you and thus taking it out of my schedule.
I will fill the schedule on a first come, first served basis and I will do my best to accommodate your requests.
After you register and schedule your child with me, and before starting lessons, you are required to register with ISR. The registration cost with ISR is $105 if you are a new student and $40 for registration updates. This registration must be done only a few weeks before lessons begin to ensure the information is up to date. I will send you an email reminding you to complete the registration when required. If you have my registration link, please DO NOT register with ISR until I send you the registration reminder.
Finally, if it looks like the times above do not meet your needs please contact me and I will do my best to work something out. I'm looking forward to hearing from you and especially to seeing your children in the pool in 2025.
Happy holiday season and happy and blessed New Year!
best,
leo
