ROCKLEDGE, FL. - Brevard County Parks and Recreation Central Area is hosting a Merfolk Academy from 5:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. on Saturday, May 24, at McLarty Aquatic Center located at 790 Barton Boulevard, Rockledge, FL 32955. 

Ever Dream of being a Mermaid or Merman? At Merfolk Academy we will make that dream come true!

We start our Merfolk-in-training with basic swimming skills before transitioning into the monofin. Instructors will teach safe fin use and proper breathing while swimming. Participants must complete a swim test before registering for the academy. The swim test consists of being able to swim 12 yards without stopping, being able to float on their front or back. Merfolk tails and monfins are provided. Space is limited to 10 participants and mermaid tail size. The cost will be $28.94 per student.

For additional information or to register, please call Debbie Bowling at (321) 302-1658.
