"Learning to Swim is an Essential
Skill that can
Save your Child’s
Life!"
Our mission
is to help our community’s children to grow into happy,
healthy, responsible adults by instilling confidence and building
positive learning attitudes for life through the sport of
swimming.
Swim America features high
quality group lessons for children and adults with defined goals
and objectives. SwimAmerica – the USA’s leading
Learn-to-Swim School teaches with the most effective method known
using a progression developed by this nation’s top swim
coaches. Our goal is to teach you or your kid/s to swim
quickly, proficiently and to learn to love swimming for health,
safety, fun and fitness. Students are placed in small groups and
move to higher skills as they achieve the advancement goals of
their present group. There are ten levels in all. From
blowing bubbles to swimming all four competitive strokes, children
are rewarded for their efforts every stroke of the way! Students
advance at their own pace from water adaptation to very advanced
swimming skills. Graduation certificates and advancement
cards are presented to children to build their confidence along the
way. Review the level skills and register for the
level that is appropriate, this is where we begin the evaluation.
SwimAmerica offers a convenient once (or more) per week schedule on
a month to month basis to meet your family’s swim lesson
needs. Take a minute to review all the great
programs we offer. We have something for everyone!
