Drop-In & Make-up Private/Semi-Private Lessons
Flexible swim lessons without an ongoing weekly commitment.
Drop-Ins are a great option for:
New swimmers who would like to try Palekana before committing to a recurring weekly lesson.
Families waiting for a weekly lesson time that better fits their schedule.
Current swimmers who would like to add an extra lesson for additional practice.
Families with a Make-Up Code who are ready to schedule an eligible make-up lesson.
How Drop-In Scheduling Works
Available Drop-In Private and Semi-Private Lessons can be viewed and booked directly below. Availability is released up to 14 days in advance and may change as families cancel or reschedule.
Choose Private Lesson or Semi-Private Lesson, select an available time, and follow the prompts to complete your booking. If you're using a valid Make-Up Code, you'll have the opportunity to enter your code when scheduling. Please note: you must be logged in and have a linked account to view Make-up codes. If you need help linking your account send us an email.
Don't see the time you're looking for? Join the waitlist! Acuity allows you to join the waitlist for the days and times that work for your family. If a matching lesson becomes available, you'll receive a text notification with the opportunity to book. Joining the waitlist does not reserve or guarantee a lesson; available openings are booked on a first-come, first-served basis.
Booking a Semi-Private Drop-In
Semi-Private Lessons can now be booked directly online! When scheduling, select Semi-Private Lesson and choose an available time.
Two swimmers from the same family:
Complete one Semi-Private booking and include both swimmers' names in the Student Name section. Only one appointment is needed for siblings from the same family.
Two swimmers from separate families:
One family should book the available Semi-Private Lesson first to hold the time and include the second swimmer's name when prompted. Then, email office@palekanaswim.com or text us to let us know you'd like the second swimmer added. We'll take care of adding the second family's booking to the same lesson time.
Semi-Private Lessons are designed for two swimmers of similar age and ability and may be shared by siblings, friends, or swimmers from separate families.
Looking for Adult Swim Lessons?
Adult swimmers are welcome to book Drop-In Private Lessons! Please select an available lesson with Abbigale, Zach, or Matt, as these are our instructors currently offering adult lessons.
If you don’t see an available time with one of these instructors, please check back as Drop-In’s update frequently or contact us for help finding an adult lesson time. Additionally, you can add yourself to the waitlist following the waitlist instructions detailed above under “How Drop-in Scheduling Works”.
Before You Book
Drop-In Private and Semi-Private Lessons follow the same age and swim-readiness requirements as our ongoing lessons. Swimmers should be age 4+, able to independently float on their back, and comfortable swimming with their face in the water for approximately 3–5 seconds.
Not sure whether your swimmer is ready for Private or Semi-Private Lessons? Please contact us before booking and we'll be happy to help you determine the best starting point.

Is the Drop-In waitlist the same as the waitlist for a recurring weekly lesson?
