  • Great swim school! My son started out afraid to even put his face in the water, but with the patient guidance of Coach JJ, he’s now comfortable and confident and has already moved up to the next level. The coaches here are amazing at what they do.

FAQs

Unless otherwise directed by a medical professional, it is always a smart idea to consider and enroll into swim lessons. Whether they have little experience to none, Big Blue can help them on their journey!

For the safety of all students, all students are initially placed based on their age-appropriate level. Students are evaluated at each lesson by our trained staff to determine their skill levels using Big Blue’s curriculum. It is not uncommon for swimmers to move up levels quickly if they have previous swim experience.
