Swim Lessons
Our lessons and style of teaching focus on water safety, proper breathing, and having fun. We have classes ranging from baby classes to competitive training. You must pre schedule by contacting us to join the class that's right for you.
All our classes are 1/2hr long.
Group Lessons
We have three students per instructor in our group lessons. Each lesson is a half an hour long. We schedule the students together based on skill and age.
We don't use skill groups to schedule, instead we talk and get to know more about the student, their needs, and your schedule. We do our best to group you in the class that is the best fit for the swimmer so you always get a great class.

Private Lessons
Privates may be right for you if:
You are over 16, all adults (16+) must take a private or semi-private. From no or low ability to racing we can help. Fix your breathing so you can swim with little fatigue or shave off your race time.
You have a fear or feel un-safe around water, everyone should swim no matter what the age. If you or anyone doesn't swim because of fear I want to help. We take it slow. We do it right. Come talk to us and have no fear.
The "group class" format didn't work, in a private class you get to have full control of what to learn and you don't have to worry about other students wasting time.
You only want two people in the class, a lot of pairs learn to swim together with a Semi-Private class they can avoid the interruption of others joining their class.

How We Teach
We do it right, never creating fears or bad habits and always being safe. The program started in Donna's back yard and for more than 35 years the family run program has made it's reputation. We have students come from Watsonville to Oakland for our hands on experience, dedication, and beautiful facility.
From day one we focus on breathing, we start with crawl stroke and backstroke then learn the whip kick and the breaststroke. The scissorkick and sidestroke along with the dolphin kick and the butterfly are taught last.
From the first day we also start jumping in. Then we learn the knee dive, deep dive, and the racing dive also with them the surface dive and the flip turn, along with all the fun jumps. Oh, and don't forget the water slide!
