Learn to Swim Program

Our Learn-to-Swim curriculum is one of a kind and developed over decades of swim instruction experience. We believe a safe play-based environment and a child-led instruction approach yields the best learning results for our swimmers. Each lesson begins with greeting your swimmer, then skill review and warm-up, leveled skill-work and finally reward time for swimmers to explore and bond with the water. Our instructors work to ensure each student feels welcome to the class and ready to learn new skills and/or grow current skills. Our levels of classes have multiple skills that need to be mastered prior to graduating to the next level.

Swim Lessons Evaluations

Every swimmer (except private lessons and adult swimmers) needs to be evaluated before their registration is complete unless otherwise approved by Waterloo. This includes all swimmers that have not taken Waterloo programming for 90 days or more. This evaluation allows us to make sure each swimmer is in the best class or group and is very important to their success.

We offer free Swim Lesson and Swim Fitness evaluations on Saturdays between 12:30pm and 1:30pm at all locations, no appointment needed. Feel free to stop by anytime during that time period and we will get your swimmer evaluated. Email info@waterlooswimming.com for any questions.
