Learn to Swim

The Chattanooga area has an abundance of pools, lakes, rivers, and streams suitable for recreational activities. Prepare your child for a lifetime of adventure - teach them to swim! We keep our classes small, no more then four swimmers per instructor so they receive personal attention and learn quickly.

Water Safety

Water Safety Training

Drowning is the number one cause (excluding car wrecks) of accidental death for children between the ages of one and fourteen. Did you know that, when a child under four drowns, a parent is usually present? We teach kids to swim and teach parents how to help keep their children safe. We also train lifeguards and swim instructors. We are committed to making the water a safer place to play!
