FIND THE RIGHT CLASS
Swim Programs
We start by asking several questions about your child to do a proper evaluation. This can be done in person at the front desk or via our iClassPro Customer Portal. We want to see your child advance their swimming skills but we want to keep your child safe as well and encourage them to keep swimming their whole lives.
Drowning prevention and water safety are some of the life-saving skills that children will learn when they learn to swim.
Our certified staff will place your child in the best swimming program that will fit their needs and have a positive effect on their swimming skills.
Flexible Lesson Times
Most noteworthy, we offer customized swimming classes and flexible swimming lessons. We offer swim lessons at four conveniently located swim schools around the greater Houston area.
You can choose the timing that suits you best. You can also ask for private swimming lessons for a more personalized experience.
Our web-based management system, iClassPro makes it easy to mark your child absent if you need to miss a class, update contact information for your child, or change any payment form with a few clicks.
Certified Swimming Instructors
The most important aspect of making sure that your child learns to be water safe is having a fully trained and certified team that can guide your swimmer to success.
We take each of our instructors through extensive training to ensure that your swimmer gets the very best instruction. On land and in-water training are a prerequisite for our instructors.
Each instructor is trained to teach our baby classes all the way up to the Swim Academy.
