Return to Lessons

Important update on lesson resumption and new booking process.

Message from Coach Ruslan: Hi all, I wanted to take a moment to let you all know that we are officially resuming our lessons.

First, thank you all for your patience and understanding while we were away. We truly appreciate it. The break was not due to any issue with parents, families, or coaches. It was a combination of Hannah and me taking a voluntary break, along with the need to restructure and improve our booking process so everything runs more smoothly moving forward.

With a busy summer ahead, you will always know which weekends we are in town and available for lessons, as well as any periods where we are traveling for training, competitions, or personal commitments.

Even though the booking process looks a little different now, we are very excited to be getting back to work and to see so many of you again. We are looking forward to a great summer together.

On the technical side, all lesson bookings will now be done through a link that directs you to the COA website. This link will be available on our Private and Group Lessons page. Once there, you will create an account and simply follow the steps to book your desired time slot.

There is now a small upfront booking fee required to secure your time. This fee is five dollars for COA swimmers and ten dollars for non COA swimmers. It applies to all session types, whether private, semi private, or group lessons.

For non COA swimmers, please note that you will not receive COA emails or internal updates, so there is no need to worry about that side of communication.

The booking fee is separate from the actual lesson cost. Lesson payments will still be handled directly at the pool after the session, preferably through cash, but Venmo or Zelle will also be accepted.

Looking forward to getting back on deck and working with all of you again.

Thanks, Coach Ruslan
