We would recommend you working one on one with a swim instructor first before joining Denver Squid.

You might try reaching out to a member of Squid named Becca Rosenberg (bec.rose918@gmail.com) to see if she might be interested.
(Please note private lessons with other swim instructors are handled outside of Squid, for liability and logistics purposes etc)

If Becca's not available, in the past some of our members have taken lessons at University of Denver (see "Adult Lessons") and the YMCA (see "Adult").
