Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: What if I can not attend one class time? Can I make it up?
A: Unfortunately, no. Time commitment & staff resources to the entire class would be jeopardized to accommodate the needs of one.
Q: What if I don’t pass the prerequisites? Can I still attend?
A: Unfortunately, no. Inability to pass ARC’s prerequisites would prove the student’s progress in the class to be difficult and possibly dangerous to the student. However, we can reschedule the student to a later class (at no charge), allowing them time to find a pool and practice. If the student decides not to re-attempt the course prerequisites at a later date, we can refund the full tuition minus $35 (cost for reserving the spot and course materials).
Q: What do I need to bring to class?
A: Students need to bring: swimsuit, dry change of clothes, goggles, contacts case (if student requires contacts), writing utensil, sack lunch or money for lunch and snacks. A sweatshirt is recommended as the classroom is air conditioned and much cooler than the pool deck. Towels are provided at the fitness center, but students may bring their own if they wish.
Q: Do we have breaks during the class?
A: Yes. We realize this is an intense training course with long hours, so students will receive numerous small breaks throughout the training days, as well as an hour for lunch on Saturday and Sunday.
