Swim Lesson Update: November 23rd, 2009

 

 

 

  

  

Parents,
 
I was extremely happy with how the first week of lessons went at the Eppelheim pool!  I have some announcements for those of you that are still waiting to join the program as well as those of you who have just started. 
 
Please read this post all the way to the bottom :)
 
 
*No class on Thursday, November 26th: Thanksgiving (American Holiday). 
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
 
 
 
Registration For The Fall 2009 Session Still Open.
 
Even though we have started our first week of lessons we are still accepting registrations into this session.  We will pro-rate anyone who registers within the first 3 lessons of this session.  After the 3rd week we will place all new registrations on our waiting list for the following session.  The next session is scheduled to start sometime in middle February 2010.
 
If you are interested in the current session please:
 
1.  Click Here to review the proposed dates of the Fall 2009 Session.
 
2.  Please Click Here to go to the registration page of our site and enter ALL of the requested information on the page (including a mobile number).  
 
3.  Once I receive your registration I will call you to discuss time and availabilty of classes.   If there is an agreed upon class that fits your swimmer’s needs then I will send you the payment details so that you can submit payment and your swimmer can start immediately.

 Can Parents Swim During Their Child’s Lesson?
 
 
I have had several parents ask me if they could swim during their child’s lesson.  The answer really depends on the days that your swimmer is having lessons.  
 
Currently, Thursdays are the only day that we conduct lessons during open swim time.  Mondays and Tuesdays we share the pool with the SG Poseidon Eppelheim swim club so there really is not option to swim on these days.
 
I do encourage you to bring your swimmer to the pool a second time per week in order to practice their skills.  Listed below you will find the open swim times for the Hallenbad Eppelheim.

Our partnership with SG Poseidon Eppelheim provides a way for children who are younger than 4 years to be able to take swimming classes too.  To learn more about these classes please click here (sorry, the information is only in German at this time).
 
 
 
 
Rules of the Pool:
  

 

Many of you did a great job of remembering to make sure that there were no street shoes worn on the pool deck last week.  Thank you!
 
I do however need to remind you of a few other rules we need to follow at the pool:
 
 
1.  Every swimmer MUST take a rinse off shower before entering the pool (This is German law)!
 
2.  Parents are more than welcome to watch their swimmer during class as long as they are wearing deck attire (shorts and t-shirt) and do not coach their swimmer from the sidelines :)
 
3.  Thursday swimmers must check-in with the front desk so that they can keep track of how many swimmers come each week because our class is during open swim.
 
 
If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to hit reply or give me a call @ +49-171-280-9054
 
Swimmingly,
 
Coach Jason

Parent Testimonial:
“Jason, 
 
Just a quick note to let you know that we appreciate your efforts

very much.  Everything is just fantastic — the pool, the pool staff, the class size – and of course, your instruction.

Yesterday, Claire had forgotten her swimsuit and was in tears.  We went to the staff at the front desk, and two very nice men assisted us in loaning her a swimsuit to wear so she could attend her first class.

Also, they advised that if my husband or I want to swim while they are in your class, it is just Euro 2,50.  So, it’s really just an ideal situation.

Thanks very much.”

Swim Wear
Several of you have asked me where you can order swim wear.
 
I recommend The Finals, not only because they have quality products at an extreme value, but because they ship fast to APO addresses (usually within 10 days).
 
 
If you would like a catalog just stop me at the pool and I’ll give you one (FREE).
