Essentials 2: Atlanta, GA – February 6-12, 2026

 

All the rest of the sessions will be at Steve Lundquist Aquatic Center located at the:
Jim Huie Recreation Center
9045 Tara Blvd, Jonesboro, GA 30236
Phone: (678) 479-5136
2 pools, 83-85 degrees and 85-88 degreesNOTE
85 degrees is toasty for air but not for pools.  We recommend at least a 2 mm neoprene vest or zip-up jacket. A long-sleeved rash guard inside it takes up space and keeps you warmer.  A vest gives your arms and shoulders full range of motion. Whichever one you get, it should fit very close to your skin with no gaps whatsoever.

Q: Why the extra 15 minutes?
A: To change clothes without using rented pool time
Q: Why 7 days instead of 5?
A: Because the course is held at a swim school and we work around their schedule.
Q: Why is this course more expensive than Sarasota?
A: Because the instructor travels from out of state and pool rent is higher.

The course fee is nonrefundable with the exception of our Guarantee.
The price now includes purchase of a tether for use in class and afterward ($30 for registered students).
At Swimmerman, the depth of this pool goes to 8 feet. The deep end is small, so 3-4 students learn there at a time. The other pool is larger.
We recommend that you purchase trip insurance. Allianz is a source.
