Our Program

Very Important!

We provide Private Female Instructors who teach swim lessons and competitive/technique training.
We provide Private Female Lifeguards for your pool party events. Our experienced and certified lifeguards will enforce our rules and any additional rules you desire to keep your guests safe. We require a 3 hour minimum for these events.
Our instructors & lifeguards are CPR, First Aid, and Water Safety Instruction certified. So you can trust your student will be safe. Our instructors also go through SRSA Curriculum training and trainings with our Child Development Specialists.
Our Areas of Service include Glendale, Burbank, Porter Ranch, Woodland Hills, North Hollywood, Van Nuys, Sun Valley, La Crescenta-Montrose, Sunland-Tujunga, Pasadena, Santa Clarita, Chatsworth & Granada Hills. Additional travel fees may be applicable depending on your location and our instructors/lifeguards availability.
Our curriculum is tailored to meet the student’s needs. Our program is designed to go at the child’s pace and gently introduce and practice life saving skills in the water. Learn more about our program below.
24hr Cancellation: We are flexible to cancel or reschedule classes when you notify your instructor at least 24 hours in advance. You will be charged for the swim class if a swim instructor is not notified of cancellation 24 hours in advance. We are able to reschedule classes if the weather is below 70 degrees in your area or if there is risk of thunder or lightening.
We travel to you: We are private instructors that travel to a home or community pool near you. We do not provide classes in other business facilities.
We require a safe environment for our students and instructors to learn in. This includes a comfortable water temperature (85-90 degrees) for the students and a hazard-free pool deck.

Step 1: Individual or Group Class.

Both in the comfort of your own home.

Individual Class

Individual Classes are great for one on one instruction. We recommend 2-3 times a week for individual classes so that the student is exposed to the concepts consistently.

Group Class

While the group classes learn the same concepts as the individual classes, group classes allow for your students to progress as a team. We recommend 3-4 classes a week for the most progress in the water.

Step 2: Pick Your Age Group.

Parent & Child (ages 2-3)

This age group requires a parent/guardian to be in the water with their little one during our swim classes. We have found that this creates a more comfortable environment for our youngest age group to soak up the concepts we teach! At this age, we focus on water safety/survival, and so we recommend 2-3 times a week for the most progress! These classes are filled with songs and colorful toys so that they build a level of comfort in the water.
Child (ages 4-6)

This age group is so much fun! Our instructors customize the swim classes to your child‘s needs, whether they have major fears of the water or they are swim pros! Our #1 goal is water safety and in our experience, this age group is safe on their own in 8-16 classes with 2-3 swim classes a week. We make these classes very fun and interactive with songs and floating/sinking toys so that they will enjoy learning these life-saving concepts.
Kids (ages 7-10)

After water safety, this age group learns swimming techniques and training to build strength and endurance in the water. This is a great after-school activity/sport for your young ones! After learning how to swim, this age group learns the 4 strokes: butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke, and freestyle. For this age group, we recommend a package of 8 or 16 of 2-3 classes a week.
Teen (ages 11-17)

Our 11-17 age group classes are a great way to get in swim shape and stay active! In these classes, we work on swim technique and strength training. We recommend 1-2 classes a week for the most improvement.
Adult (ages 18+)

It is never too late to learn how to swim! We create a comfortable environment in our swim classes so that you excel in the water.

Step 3: Purchase Your Class Package

4 Classes

A package of 4 swim classes is a great way to ease into swim classes for the summer! Get to know your swim instructor and if our program is the right fit for you.

8 Classes

A package of 8 swim classes is recommended for swim classes spread out twice a week. In our experience, most kids become very water confident after 8 swim classes.

(5% package savings included)

16 Classes

A package of 16 swim classes will reserve your time slots for the summer! With this package, you can take 3-4 classes a week, allowing the student to learn the concepts and translate them to muscle memory.

(10% package savings included)

The Curriculum.

Our curriculum is very simple, and so is the way we teach. Unlike other swim academies, we customize our curriculum to each individual student. We meet each student with whatever strengths or weaknesses they bring to the water and tailor each lesson to make them most comfortable to learn and excel. We make sure the concepts are simple and easy to repeat on their own. Our gentle approach to swim classes do not guarantee that any student will be at a certain level by a certain lesson/amount of time. Our goal is improvement, big or small, for every class but there are a lot of factors that go into your child’s progress that we are not in-control of.

Our goal is water safety for every student. When our students pass Level 3, they are completely water safe! This means they will be comfortable and confident to be left alone in any depth of water. After Level 3, students are trained and coached to perfect their swimming technique and to learn new concepts pertaining to the sport.

Below we have the water safety rules and levels 1-6. Take a look at all the concepts we teach in the swim classes!
