our core beliefs:
swimming should be fun, centering, and positive!
-
We pride ourselves on a comfortable water experience, always meeting our swimmers exactly where they're at. This allows students to relax and “feel” how their bodies move in the water. We also believe swimming is all about joy, so we strive to make swimming lessons fun. A love of swimming provides students with an endless source of enjoyment throughout their lives as well as fitness and confidence -in and out of the water!
swimming and water safety skills are essential for everyone.
-
Drowning is a silent event that can happen to even experienced swimmers. Especially here in Minnesota where we are surrounded by lakes and rivers - water safety is a must! We teach swimmers and their entire families water safety skills that will help in the case of an accidental water entry or water emergency. We also provide swimmers the opportunity to familiarize themselves with water rescue equipment.
students learn best through
a personalized approach.
-
In group classes at other swim schools, students must wait to receive time and feedback from the teacher, and must pass their way through levels with groups of set skill requirements before learning further. We start with our students’ strengths, helping them find early successes in skills that match their abilities. We believe students ultimately progress more quickly when they can work with a teacher to master the right skills at the right time and pace.
