Private and semi-private swim lessons are available to participants of all ages! Private lessons provide a one-on-one, teacher-to-student experience to increase swimming skills. Semi-private lessons provide a small-group experience consisting of 2 participants of similar ability levels. Lessons are sold as a 6-lesson package. All of our instructors are experienced MTU Aquatics staff members!
Space will be provided for personal items on the pool deck. Goggles are highly recommended. Showering is required before entering the water. Capacity is limited. The SDC is not responsible for lost or stolen property. Please do not leave valuables unattended.

Location
SDC Pool
Youth Supervision in Locker Rooms
To help ensure a safe and comfortable environment for all participants, we strongly recommend that a parent or guardian accompany their child in the locker room at all times.
If you are using the pool and your child is not able to be accompanied by an adult in the locker room, we kindly ask that they use the private changing tents located on the pool deck instead.
Thank you for helping us keep our facility safe, respectful, and welcoming for everyone!
