Swim Lessons1

Please note that we only teach swim lessons to members at pools or communities that are managed by Swim Atlanta. We offer group, semi-private and private lessons.
Our swim instructors will help your child gain self-confidence and satisfaction from learning to swim.

We make learning to swim a lifetime of enjoyment!
One of the most rewarding parts of having a pool is watching a child learn to swim. As an optional service, we provide your children with swimming lessons. Our group classes contain no more than six students to ensure that they all receive the attention they need to become proficient swimmers. We also offer private and semi-private lessons.

Our swim instructors provide:

  • Class organization (lesson plans, class registration, certificates)
  • Swimming lesson Instruction
  • Communication with parents


Our Philosophy:

At SwimAtlanta Pool Management, children are rewarded with praise for a job well done. They are never forced to perform a skill. We believe that with patience, positive encouragement and frequent repetition of skills, your child will have a happy, safe and successful swimming experience.
