What Makes Us Different?
- We offer small classes (6:1 or 8:2 student:teacher ratio) to ensure individual attention.
- We focus on having fun as well as skill progression to help students enjoy the water and overcome their fear.
- Our levels are broken down by both age and skill level to make sure each student is challenged appropriately.
- Our staff is highly trained in our level system to provide consistent and unified instruction across classes.
- Rec & Ed puts safety first! A certified lifeguard is on duty at all times.
- We believe that children learn best without using flotation devices. No belts, water wings, or lifejackets are used in any of our classes.
- Our classes are structured to teach a logical skill progression and organized to provide a full class of instruction, not free swim.
"The instructors were patient. They used the right amout of 'push' without making
(my child) scared." - Sheri A.
