Swim Lessons

J Swim Academy combines the best of both Red Cross Swim Lessons and Swim America. We emphasize early water safety and proper USA swimming stroke progressions and guidelines while maintaining a focus on providing an inclusive and safe environment, taught by experienced instructors. Our swim levels progress from water comfort to water safety with the end goal of proper stroke technique in all four strokes, starts, and turns.

Private and Semi-Private swim lessons are scheduled for your convenience, and you can focus your lesson on what you want to learn.

If you have 3-4 children that want to do a lesson together, we can put together a Create-A-Class. You choose the children so you feel comfortable with everyone in the group. 3 children minimum and 4 children maximum.

View schedules and class descriptions below.
