π In case you were wondering...
Proof of vaccination is not required to enter swimming pools. That said, donβt forget that masks are still mandatory at all times by anyone over 12 who is not a student actively participating in the lesson!
For our customers in BC who are curious about the new public health orders, individual fitness activities and private swim lessons are unaffected. If that changes, we will notify you ASAP.
Also, instructors will be wearing mandatory N95 filtered PPE.

At @propelhq we're solving a huge problem. More than 2/3 of people in #yyz that sign up for swimming lessons are turned away. It's a story echoed in every major NA city, politics and budgets alone cannot fix it - we're here to expand and create the capacity that is needed.
"Itβs the Uber of swimming," says reporter Francine Kopun. "and it might make a dent in the long list of those waiting for openings in the City of Torontoβs aquatics programs."
There are 25,521 people on waiting lists for City of Toronto swim programs. Amie Nguyen, co-founder of Propel, says it's "getting a little easier" to find hotels to partner with, that will allow their pools to be used for swimming lessons. @KopunF:
