Hello Everyone,
We hope you are having a great start to 2026 and are ready for some warm weather. We want to start off by wishing everyone a HAPPY NEW YEAR! Thank you for the incredible response last swim season and for trusting us to teach your children. In anticipation for some sunny weather hopefully on its way, it is just about time to start booking swimming lessons. This year the lessons will be running at our pool in Richmond Hill at the same location (18 Alhart Street) as in the previous years. Ethan, Paige and Zachary will be instructors both at our pool as well as travelling to your pool for your convenience!
This is the first email of the year sent out to all previous clients, thus all-time slots are open and new clients are welcome. You can now book by sending us an email. Our website is: https://www.ezbackyardswim.com/ please feel free to visit at your convenience for more information regarding lessons, our team and FAQ.
The bookings will be on a first come first serve basis, therefore to get that precious time slot you must act fast. Our availability this summer will begin officially the week of June 29th (We will be closed on the Wednesday for Canada Day) and go through the week of August 24th between the hours of 9:00 am and 7:00 pm. We are also booking select time slots starting the week of June 15th Monday-Friday between the hours of 4:00 pm and 7:00 pm
This year, we are offering a chance to lock in prices until April 30th payments must be made in full upon booking. This offer is only available until April 30th. There will be no exceptions. After April 30th, all prices will be increased. Full payment is required 24 hours after booking for the summer to confirm your time slot. All payment will be non-refundable as per our policies.
We will run all of the same lessons from last year, including toddler lessons to get your little ones used to the water (age 18 months ) Preschool lessons (ages 3-6) Swim Kids lessons (ages 6-12). Please let us know about any questions, as we are always happy to help! Please note that two instructors will be running classes at the same time. If you would prefer to only have your children taught in the pool, please consider booking both children with two different instructors.
We do not put families together for semi-private and group lessons. These lesson packages require that both children are independent swimmers for safety reasons and should be at the same swimming level. These packages are only for children 6 years old and up.
The swim program for Mom’s and Dad’s is still available. We have been teaching adults in the previous years. The lessons are 100% customizable to achieve the goals you desire. We have taught adults starting with front/back floats to improving their front crawl techniques. Therefore don’t hesitate this summer if you wish to improve your skills and increase your comfort level in the water. There is no reason Mom’s and Dad’s shouldn’t learn how to swim just as well as their children.
**Just a kind reminder that email is the best way to contact me or inquire through the website. We will do our best to get back to everyone within 24 hours of the first email.
We hope everyone is having a great winter and look forward to seeing you all this Summer!
Sincerely,
Ethan, Zachary & Paige
