Partnership Services
We can provide pool space and fully equipped facilities in South Philly or Center City. Generally, partners seek us out for one of the following services:
Open Swim: Exclusive, private use of the pool for play and swim, booked in one-hour increments for up to 45 swimmers. (Minimum 20 swimmers.) We provide a certified lifeguard and deck staff as well as locker room facilities with showers and private bathrooms. An extra lifeguard is required at $50/hr for bookings over 25 swimmers.
Cost: $15/swimmer/hour
Swim Lessons: Customized small-group lessons from our expert coaching staff, booked in 30-minute increments. We can accommodate 16 swimmers per half hour —that’s 4 swim groups at a 4:1 swimmer-to-coach ratio. Have more than 16 swimmers? No problem! They can play in our on-site play room until it’s their turn to swim.
Cost: $40/swimmer/half hour
Private Fitness Classes: Bring your group, and we’ll bring the sweat! Our private pool fitness classes are an absolute blast, with fun music, energetic instructors and all-levels movement. We can host 15 (or more!) for a private Water Aerobics or Lap Swim for Fitness class. You can read about our Fitness Classes here.
Cost: $22/swimmer/hour
Customizable Services: If you can dream it, we can do it! We’ve hosted everything from sport-specific cross-training classes to baby swim classes for moms groups. We can tailor an event to your needs—just ask!
