WHERE LIFESAVING SKILLS MEET LIFELONG CONFIDENCE

Did you know that drowning is the number one cause of death for children ages 1–4 in the U.S. and remains a leading cause of death for older children and adults? Or that over half (55%) of U.S. adults have never taken a swim lesson? Swim lessons have been shown to reduce the risk of drowning by 88%, giving parents a greater peace of mind and helping children become safer in and around all kinds of water. That’s why we’ve partnered with the National Drowning Prevention Alliance (NDPA), a leading organization dedicated to preventing drowning through education, advocacy, and innovation. Together, we’re working to expand water safety awareness and reduce drowning, one swim lesson at a time.

Both of my kids are always counting down to their next swim lesson because they’re so excited to get back in the pool. They’ve both come so far as swimmers in the last couple of months, and I feel like the school does a great job showing them proper swimming and water safety techniques while still making the lessons exciting and fun.

Jacklyn

Excellent swim school with top notch staff!! If you want your children to really learn how to swim and be safe in the water, this is the place to take them. The instructors are not only highly skilled, but also incredibly patient and encouraging with the kids. I've seen so many kids initially nervous about swimming, after just a few lessons gain so much confidence in the water. They truly understand how to make learning fun, safe and engaging with the kids.

Samantha

Our 3 kids have enjoyed every minute of their swim lessons. There is always welcoming staff at the front desk, there is a large kids section to color and play in while you wait for class to start, the pool is always warm so the kids can actually focus on learning to swim instead of freezing, and the changing rooms are nice and big with hair dryers, clothes dryers, and bathrooms for after. We highly recommend here for your kids’ to learn water safety!

Casey

I recently started taking lessons after debating for a while about actually taking formal swim lessons. I never took proper swim lessons and in all honesty I have a fear of the water if my feet aren't touching the ground. They have adult classes, the class I am in is small which is great as my instructor is able to sort of tailor teaching based on where each person is. My instructor is understanding and not pushy at all which I love! I'm only a few weeks in but have been really happy with my experience so far and would recommend to anyone who wants to perhaps learn to swim for the first time or someone who wants improve their skills.

Robert

From the moment I walked in, I was met with a welcoming atmosphere. Front desk staff goes above and beyond to make sure every visit is smooth and accommodating—they're all incredibly helpful and always greet us with a smile. The facility itself is always clean and well-maintained, which makes the experience even more enjoyable. I’ve had fantastic instructors who bring enthusiasm and expertise to every lesson. They’re patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to helping students improve.

Becca

My son has progressed so much since starting. He’s no longer scared of the water and he gets excited to see his instructors every Saturday. I love that booking with them is so easy and we have consistency. If you are looking for swimming classes for your baby, toddler and big kid…DEFINITELY check them out! Everyone’s also so friendly and helpful.

Denise

My son is Autistic and taking lessons to be safer around water. He has an extremely hard time with water on his face or head. Our instructor is fantastic and really knows how to comfort him when he is overestimulated but also continue to help him learn. I'm so thankful we are able to do these lessons and excited for my son to get all the benefits of swimming. I love being able to watch what he is doing but not being in eyesight where I could distract him. They have changing rooms and showers that were all very clean.

Amy

Fantastic instructors who make kids feel comfortable and confident in the pool! The team's consistency is evident with the school's strong instructor retention, which makes a difference. My son has been training here for the past two years, and his growth as a swimmer has been remarkable. It's been a wonderful experience for us!

Maya

When I thought about taking swimming lessons, the idea was fear. I felt like I would drown. I thought I was going to be with little kids swimmimg. Boy was I wrong. The instructors are patient. The classes are not big. The instructors are professional and friendly. Soon enough, I had faced my fears and in the water. I still have a long way to go to reach my goal as a proficient swimmer, but I'm glad I made the choice to get started. There is something here for everyone; from the baby to the senior.

Liz

My daughter is becoming more and more comfortable in the water. I see her learning techniques week after week that I honestly did not expect her to comprehend at 8 months, all thanks to our amazing instructor. We look forward to this weekly class as a family. I also love that loved ones can observe behind the glass without interfering with her class time. Huge thank you for making our experience exceptional!

Michelle

My son was afraid of the water, but after a few classes with the instructors, he's come out of his shell and now loves swimming. They do not rush the kids and have a very gentle way of getting them to learn to love swimming, which is exactly what my family was looking for. I highly recommend giving them a try.

Ryan

I absolutely love this swim school. Not only is the staff immediately warm and welcoming, they take any concern you may have seriously and are quick to action! My daughter has severe autism and they do not hesitate to make accommodations so she can be comfortable during her weekly swim class. That really means the world to our family. I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone.

Water Safety: A Lifesaving Skill for All Ages

At SafeSplash, water safety isn’tjust a topic we cover—it’s the foundation of everything we do. Whether you’re introducing your 4-month-old to the water or learning to swim yourself, we’re dedicated to equipping families with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to enjoy the water safely.

The Importance of Water Safety

Drowning remains the leading cause of injury-related death for children ages 1–4, and yet, it’s one of the most preventable tragedies. Swim lessons alone can reduce the risk of drowning by up to 88%, making them a critical tool for every family. Beyond that, developing strong swimming techniques can empower swimmers of all ages to navigate water safely and confidently.

Water Safety Essentials for Every Age

Preserver-W

Infants & Toddlers

For the littlest swimmers, supervision is key. Even small amounts of water can pose a risk, so constant attention and instilling good habits early is essential.

Stay Close: Always be within arm’s reach of your child.

Teach Permission: Start reinforcing “ask before entering” behaviors in every lesson.

Use Life Jackets: Choose Coast Guard-approved life jackets for open water adventures.

Learn CPR: Equip teens with the tools to respond in emergencies.
Avoid Risky Behavior: Discuss the dangers of alcohol and peer pressure around water.

Adults

Water safety isn’t just for kids. Adults should model safe behaviors and understand their own limits.

Stay Sober: Avoid alcohol around water activities.
Use Life Jackets: Wear Coast Guard-approved jackets when boating or participating in water sports.

I’ve always been passionate about sports! Swimming, in particular, is very close to my heart. I spent all my summers as a kid in the water with my siblings while my dad taught us to swim. It left me with very fond memories; I wanted to create those same memories with my son.

When it was time for him to start learning, we faced a lot of challenges because he was afraid of water. We spent a long time exploring different options until we finally found a teacher who understood him, and she helped him blossom into the swimmer he is today. He went on to absolutely love the water and swam competitively until college.

I want to be able to give back to my community, and allow them to foster the same memories that swimming created for me and my son. I saw firsthand how difficult it can be to find swimming lessons that are both effective and engaging. That’s why I decided to open up this school - not only will it give jobs to those passionate teachers, it will enable people of all ages to take that first step on their swimming journey.

I am truly looking forward to working with you all! I can’t wait to help people learn this important life skill and help them make memories!

How long will it take my child to learn to swim?

It’s a question every parent faces as they strive to ensure their child is equipped for safety in and around the water. Which is why we’ve created the S.A.F.E.R. Swimmer Promise, a commitment to ensure your child learns critical self-rescue skills. We’ll teach them the skills needed to pass our water safety test in one year or less, or we’ll provide up to 2 months of free lessons to help them succeed.

Our proven curriculum teaches 10 essential swim skills designed to make every swimmer safer in the water. Your child will successfully perform these essential self-rescue and safety skills in 12 months or less – or we'll give you up to 2 months of free lessons to help them succeed.

Swimmers aged 4 and up in Beginner 2-4 are ready for the S.A.F.E.R. Swimmer curriculum, where they’ll master self-rescue and water safety skills.
Our water safety test is designed to assess each swimmers ability to perform essential skills for self-rescue and safety. If they don’t pass within one year of consistent attendance, they’ll receive up to 2 months of free lessons to help them succeed.
Practice makes progress, so weekly attendance is required, with no more than 4 missed lessons to keep the promise intact (facility closures not included).

For children ages 4+ in Beginner 2–4 group classes at participating locations. If a swimmer doesn’t pass the S.A.F.E.R. Swimmer Test within one year of consistent weekly attendance (no more than 4 absences), they’ll receive up to 2 months of free lessons or until they pass, whichever comes first. Make-up lessons must be completed within 2 weeks of an absence to stay eligible.
