Year ‘round Lessons are recommended for young children who are starting a swimming program.. Drowning is the #1 cause of childhood death in children under the age of five in California. Weekly visits to the pool will instill respect and safety skills when they are in or around any body of water and add to the Layers of Protection against drownings. Remember, the only 100% preventative measure against a childhood drowning is the constant visual supervision from a qualified adult.
We invite you to come to our indoor facilities, get a friendly and informative personal tour, and watch any lessons at any time.
Two reusable swim diapers are mandatory for babies under 3 years old, or older students who are not yet potty trained. For more diaper information, click HERE.
Private
Private Lessons
One-on-one, private lessons are the most efficient way to learn to swim for any age, but they are especially recommended for the fearful or very shy child. Individualized attention allows instructors to focus on skills needed, and breeze through those skills more easily attained or already mastered by the student.
Our approach is firm, but gentle and loving, and we never push the fearful child. Our primary goal is to teach our students how to relax, appreciate and love the water. We are more interested in the quality of the stroke than speed, for as the stroke improves, it becomes easier, and speed naturally increases.
Lessons are 20 minutes long. Students who graduate earn beautiful charms and they get to choose treats from our “Treasure Chest.”
Most children benefit from 1-private and 1-group class per week. This gives them the individual attention they need to work on more difficult skills, along with group peer pressure, allowing them to practice multiple times per week. This will yield quicker results and save money in the long run.

Group
Group Lessons
(3+ years old only)
Group lessons are extremely good for outgoing or competitive children, but shy children can blossom in these classes as well. All of our Group classes are ongoing, with students graduating from one level to the next when they acquire the required skills, not at the end of sessions or months. New groups are always opening up and we create classes as needed for your convenience based on availability.
Our group lessons are limited to 4 students at our beginner levels, with 6 students in our advanced (Stroke) Clinic (see below). We pride ourselves in our use of circuits so that students are always moving and learning in the class, not just waiting for their turn while watching another child. This means that your child is learning throughout the entire lesson, as opposed to waiting their turn for 2-3 minutes of instruction in most other programs.
Lessons are 28 minutes long. Students who graduate earn beautiful charms and get to choose treats from our “Treasure Chest.”
Most children benefit from 1-private and 1-group class per week. This gives them the individual attention they need to work on more difficult skills, along with group peer pressure, allowing them to practice multiple times per week. 2-group lessons will also work as practice is key to progress! This will yield quicker results and save money in the long run.
*5% multi-booking discount offered. 20 minute lesson provided if only one student in group.
*Currently available at our Newhall location only.*

Dear Academy,
Nathan, during Christmas breakfast, fell into my brother-in-law’s pool fully dressed. He swam to the side of the pool, pulled his head up and held on to the edge. As parents everyone knows how one brief situation can change everything. We are grateful…
