Our Science of SwimPlay® Method

Learning through play is at the heart of what we do. Our Science of SwimPlay® method blends guided play with structured learning in a safe environment. This approach helps children overcome fears, develop swimming techniques, and improve cognitive and social skills—all while having a blast. It’s not just a lesson; it’s an experience kids look forward to every week.

Small Classes, Big Progress

We are a school, not a store. That means every detail is designed with learning and development in mind. Our small class sizes ensure that each child gets the individual support they need to thrive. Combined with our warm water and positive atmosphere, we create the ideal setting for children to grow into confident, capable swimmers.

Family-Friendly Amenities and Fun

Beyond weekly lessons, we offer family swim sessions where parents and kids can play and practice together. It’s a great way to reinforce skills and enjoy quality time in the water. Our Ashland facility also features comfortable viewing areas, private changing suites, and a hassle-free experience for the whole family.
