SAFETY FIRST
Group lessons are a privilege reserved for students who have been personally “cleared” by Ms. Ana as ready for independent water safety. To maintain this status, students must transition into groups immediately following their private lessons.
Because water survival skills require consistent practice, "Group Readiness" can expire. If a child is absent from lessons for 4 weeks or longer, they must complete a one-week private refresher course ($150) to be re-cleared before joining a group again. This ensures your child is 100% safe to be on the steps or ledge while Ms. Ana is working with another student.
Our Group Lessons

Aquababies
Floaters come to these lessons with a parent. Ms. Ana will ensure that essential skills are retained and new techniques are learned during the private lessons. She will work individually with each child throughout the duration of the lesson, focusing on both survival swimming skills and general swimming lessons when the child is ready.

What do Parents Say?
“Where do I start!?!?!? Our experience with Ms Ana has been amazing! My son was in franchise swim lessons and not progressing, treating it more like playtime. We switched over to Ana and after the first week there was already huge progress. At the end of our 6 week session, my son now jumps in and will swim the length of her pool! My son asks everyday if we are going to Ms Ana’s house! Ana is the swim whisperer! Also I would like to mention that Ana is truly amazing with children and shows the utmost patience, kindness and love to her students. We will continue taking more lessons with Ana for as long as she will have us!”
— Marisa Walsh
“These swim lessons are amazing and Ana is so patient and kind with kids! Can not recommend her enough!”
— Krystle Williamson
“Lessons with Anna was the best thing we did for our 3 children (and ourselves as parents) this summer! Our children now love the water and we feel so much relief, as parents, knowing they have the survival skills they’ve learned at Red Cardinal. Anna is a wonderful teacher and person! We can’t thank her enough!”
