Can a private swim instructor come to our home or building pool in Greatwood?
Yes, when the pool allows it. For a building, condo or HOA pool, check the pool rules for guests and instructors first, then set the day and time with your instructor. InstaSwim does not arrange pool access.

Yes. Mommy & Me lessons put a parent in the water with babies and toddlers from 6 months, and lessons for ages 3 to 6 work on floating, kicking and breath control. Tell us each child's age when you register so the match accounts for it.
When do I pay?
Registering is free. Once your instructor is confirmed and you agree on a start date, your invoice arrives by email. Packages of 2 or more lessons can be paid in weekly installments.

Texas high school swimming is a winter sport under the UIL. Regional meets are held in late January, and the state meet for Conferences 4A and below takes place in February at Josh Davis Natatorium in San Antonio. Many teens use the fall to work on strokes and fitness before the season.
