The upcoming closure of Mount Vernon has created some challenges, both for me and my students, and more broadly. Pool space will be a very scarce resource in January and February. Things may improve in March- time will tell. Unfortunately, trying to find teaching spots for everyone who can no longer teach at Mt Vernon has also been a challenge, and I will not have any group classes in Fairfax County in January & February.
As a result, I have accepted more hours at Long Bridge in Arlington County. I will have some “inter session” private lessons during the first two weeks of January, and some regular session private lessons as well. I will also be teaching parent & child classes there on Saturday mornings, and other group classes that are still to be determined.
I’ll be offering as many private lessons as I can in Fairfax, probably mainly on days when the high school teams are not practicing due to school breaks, and will release my calendar for those as soon as possible. I know this is a disappointing update to many, and I’m sorry! Please let me know if you want me to provide leveling information so you can look for a group class or team for your student. And if your kids have been practicing with a great team that they love, please pass the information along and I’ll share your recommendation!
Thank you all, as always, for being the amazing people you are. It is truly a joy to swim with your families.
