swim
programs:
- lap swimming:
lap swimming for all ages (children 12 and under will require adult
supervision) will be available all day, everyday, during e-Fitness
& Wellness’ operating hours. lane availability and pools open for
lap-swimming use may vary due to bather loads, but facilities always
will be available for active lap swimming. the aquatics department will
do everything it can to post lap-swimming schedules in our areas to
communicate how many lanes are open for lap swimming and in which of
the two lap-swimming pools.
- SwimAmerica
Learn to Swim Program (NOT Swim Lessons):

e-Fitness & Wellness is proud to be the home of Mississippi’s only
licensed SwimAmerica program. the SwimAmerica program is the
state-of-the-art learn-to-swim program in the world and is a national
program run by the American Swimming Coaches Association. classes will
begin during the Christmas Holidays and initially will be open to
children ages five and up. as we bring our programs online, we will
expand our ages to include both infants (six months and older) and
adults. group classes will be encouraged as this is the best setting
for most children to learn, but private instruction also will be
available. SwimAmerica is unique in that our instructors are trained
coaches, skilled in the art of teaching swimming … we teach kids how to
swim, we do NOT offer swim lessons.
schedule: monday-thursday 5 p.m., 6p.m., 7 p.m.
program consists of one 40 minute session per week for 10 weeks.
cost: $80 for members & $100 for nonmembers
- personal instructions:
private lessons will be available for swimmers of any age and ability.
when possible, we would encourage participation on our teams and in our
learn to swim program, but we recognize that there are special needs
when it comes to the aquatic environment. we will work with our members
to develop programs of instruction that are structured around specific,
measurable goals and to inspire an appreciation of the joys aquatics
can provide for a lifetime. it’s never too late to learn!
