Puffer Fish Program

Puffer Fish Program The Puffer Fish Program was created on the sole idea that with swimming lessons, there is always something for everyone!

We offer our Puffer Fish Lessons for individuals with disabilities and our PF Swim School for traditional based lessons. The Puffer Fish Program was created on the sole idea that with swimming lessons, there is always something for everyone. Our owner and coordinator Coral Callahan created the program knowing that there was a definitive need to change the way we teach swimming lessons. As a long t

ime Lifeguard/ Swim Instructor, Recreation Therapist and Registered Practical Nurse she was able to do just that. The Puffer Fish Program is divided into two sectors that we are able to merge together in harmony. Puffer Fish is our first sector where our goal is to provide quality and individualized swimming lessons for individuals with disabilities. Our instructors are trained in client centred care and promotion of abilities. Puffer Fish begins with an over the phone consultation with our coordinator, then is transcribed to a program plan where the instructor is able to create lessons specifically to suit the swimmers needs, goals and desires. PF Swim School is our second sector where our goal is to provide quality swimming lessons catered to all abilities. In these lessons we take a more traditional approach to swimming lessons, but still individualized to the swimmers needs and abilities. For our swim school there is no individualized criteria that is needed to move on to the next level, we work on every area of swimming to create a well rounded swimmer from day one.

Summer 2022 ☀️is just around the corner and so is our registration!

Registration opens Wednesday May 4th at 8:00am for in home swimming lessons. Requests will only be taken via EMAIL.

Sessions will be offered in blocks of 3 or 4 days in a row. Participants must sign up for the entire block. The lessons will run from 8:00am until 1:00pm daily. There will be no specific time requests. We will provide you with your start time following the close of registration.

We will attempt to provide make up days if they are available, if they are not we will provide you with a lesson credit for the remainder of the summer to use. If by the end of the summer a credit remains we will provide you with a refund.

Cancellation Guidelines:

The Puffer Fish Program will attempt to swim at all times, even in the rain. But if thunder and lightning are present the lessons will end immediately for the safety of your swimmer and our staff. If it is possible to cancel the lesson 1 hour prior to the instructor's arrival, we will attempt to reschedule your lesson. In the event of a sudden onset of thunder and lighting, the regular lesson fees will remain and we will not reschedule missed time.
At the parent/ guardian request we can attempt to create an additional lesson with the regular lesson fees in place.
If a cancellation for illness is required we require a minimum of 2 hours notice, we cannot guarantee a time to reschedule but will make all attempts to create one. If there is not 2 hours notice the regular lesson fees will be required to be paid.
For cancellation for the purposes of personal scheduling issues the regular lesson fee is required to be paid and there will be no attempts to reschedule.

Our price list and schedule are below.
