We're a United States Swim School Association member and a USA Swimming Club program providing the finest swimming programs available in the Greater Orlando area since 1972. We utilize the latest teaching techniques and coaching methods available. Through our framework of progressions teaching points, advancement goals, and skill development, all children are provided with the opportunity to learn.

We have programs from a child’s first water experience to those in pursuit of excellence in competitive swimming.
