Adult Lessons
You're never too old to start! The City of Greater Sudbury offers Adult Swim Lessons at each of the five municipal pools. This program will teach you the basics, from entering and exiting the water to the more advanced lessons where you can perfect your swim strokes and skills. These lessons offer Water Smart® Education as part of the Swim for Life® program. The City of Greater Sudbury is affiliated with the Lifesaving Society.

Swim to Survive for Adults (18+)
Participants will be encouraged to set their own goals and with the guidance of our certified instructors, swimmers will develop water confidence and learn basic skills. This class is suitable for those with little to no swimming experience.
Over three weeks, in three, 45-minute classes, swimmers will follow the Lifesaving Society's Swim to Survive curriculum. Participants will learn skills, such as floating, treading water and emergency survival tips. This is the perfect introduction to swimming in a safe, fun and welcoming environment BEFORE registering for Adult Swimming Lessons. Pre-requisite: must be 18-years old prior to the first class.
There’s a new way to register for leisure programs or book a facility. It’s easy to create an account! If you need help getting started, visit our Frequently Asked Questions page.
The French interface of our new registration system is still under development, however it is important that the City goes live with the new system as the existing registration and facility booking system is no longer supported by the vendor. Residents can still receive this service in French by calling 311 to have a French-speaking operator process bookings or registrations. The French interface will be launched in time for the fall/winter registration period.
