Tailored Swim Classes Across All Ages
Catering to diverse age groups, our swim classes range from fun water exploration for little ones to specialized techniques for teens and adults, all skillfully tailored by our expert instructors.
Infants & Toddlers
Engaging in regular swimming lessons from an early age facilitates the attainment of motor, cognitive, academic, emotional, and language developmental milestones ahead of non-swimming peers.
Our aquatic program is meticulously crafted for infants and toddlers aged 4 months to 4 years. In these classes, students will acquire essential water safety skills, including safe entry into the water, breath-holding techniques, independent propulsion to the pool’s edge, and secure exit from the pool.
Led by nurturing and qualified swim coaches with a profound understanding of infants and toddlers, our 30-minute, small-group swim classes help:
- Foster a strong bond between the child and the accompanying parent or caretaker.
- Boost self-esteem and independence as children master skills at their own pace.
- Mitigate the development of water fears.
- Induce relaxation and stimulation that positively impact sleep and appetite.
- Promote a robust respiratory system.
