Good News, Bad News

A big thank you to the families who have stuck with me through all of the ups and downs.  I know that we will find the perfect location for our PBJ minis to learn life and safety skills...eventually.  You never know what's around the river bend :).  For now, we'll keep plugging away MacGyver Style.  ​

Full Swim Program Postponed

Swim lessons will not be held at the Picollo school this fall as planned.  Although this is insanely disappointing, it is also a great opportunity to update training materials and administrative procedures.  When we find another warm location for swim lessons we'll be more prepared so that classes run smoothly and customer communication is improved!  There is no current timeline for the swim program, but the mailing list will receive updates.  A limited number of ongoing swim lessons will be available on Friday's in Incline Village until a warmer pool is found.

We've been working on new adaptive programs and packages in anticipation of the Reno pool.  These will go into effect now to make the transition faster when a pool is found.

You'll find updated information throughout the website and links below.

Fall 2016 Updates:

• Taste of PBJ will replace Evaluation Classes
  • First time students will now attend a 30-45 minute private lesson rather than a group evaluation.  This will simplify scheduling, and allow instructors to better gauge a child's learning style and find the best fit.
  • The last 5 minutes of each Taster class are reserved for instructors to note student skills and discuss class options with parents.
  • Families will go home with a written skill summary and ongoing class time options
  • Yoga students have the option to attend a private Taste of Yoga class prior to joining group classes.  This will help to familiarize families to the routine.

• Price Changes
  • Yoga add-on classes are increasing from $20-$28/month to cover operational costs.  Current students will continue original pricing with the option to move to new price plan.
  • Discounted intro month for infants, toddlers, and toddler+.  *Limited availability

  • Private & integrated swimming resumes.  Water temperature may not be appropriate for all needs.  Just ask!
