  • Abbi has been working in the Aquatics Industry for 9 years. She has a passion for water safety that comes from a background of swim lessons, lifeguarding, facility management, and instructing lifeguard classes. Abbi has always loved being in the water, so it's a great pleasure for her to make it a safe and fun experience for the community. Don't hesitate to stop in and introduce yourself!

Protective Layer Policy

All children under the age of 4, even if they are potty trained, will be required to wear the snug protective layers shown above when using the pool.

  • Snug fitting protective layers will need to pass the two-finger test. If two fingers can fit under the elastic in the legs and waist, the layer is too large.
  • Students who have a repeated accident in the pool may be required to wear special protective layers, such as adult sized rubber pants, regardless of age.
  • If a child under the age of 4 is found not properly layered, they will be asked to leave the pool and return once the appropriate attire is worn.


Swim Lessons

Longfellow Health Club in Natick offers swimming lessons for every age and skill level! Our private and seasonal group swimming classes cater to infants, toddlers, youth, adults, and master swimmers. Our experienced instructors create a safe, welcoming environment where learning and trust thrive.

  • Infant/Tot Programs (6 months - 2 years) These classes help your little ones adjust to the water, with a parent or guardian joining them in the pool.
  • Preschool Programs (2 - 5 years) Our preschool classes help young children get comfortable in the water while learning basic skills.
  • Youth Programs (5 - 14 years) We offer classes from basic to advanced water skills, preparing more experienced kids for the swim team.
  • Adult Programs We offer private lessons tailored to adults, ensuring a comfortable and supportive experience. Whether you are learning to swim, fine-tuning your skills, or looking for a thrilling workout, we can help you reach your goals!


Non-Member Policy

At Longfellow Health Club, we are dedicated to offering an exceptional swimming experience for everyone. To better serve our community, we have updated our non-member policies:

  • Beginning May 24th, private swim lessons will be available exclusively to our members. This change helps us ensure personalized attention and high-quality instruction to serve our club members.
  • Starting in the fall, non-members can sign up for one session of group swim lessons. We want everyone to have a chance to experience the joy of swimming with us. If you're considering continuing beyond this initial session, we invite you to join our club and enjoy all the benefits of membership!
