Swimming Classes for Children in Manhattan: Start Them Early!

Beginning to teach water confidence and safety at a young age can benefit your child in many ways. Not only does it reduce their risk of drowning, but it also serves them as a lifelong skill. At British Swim School Manhattan, we offer swimming classes for children of all ages. Starting with survival and safety and progressing to skilled swimming strokes, we make the water safe and fun for everyone!

Making Water Acclimation and Safety Fun

If you’re looking for a class where you can swim along with your little one as they become acclimated to the water, our Tadpole program is perfect for you! For beginners aged 3 months to 36 months, we teach skills that can make them less fearful of the water. Parents are encouraged to reduce fear and tears during these sessions while also working on assisted back floating and full submersion.

We keep our classes small and intimate, averaging four to six kids each. This allows your child to receive the independent time and instruction they need. Our instructors are highly trained and use fun, kid-friendly ways to teach water acclimation skills and independent water exploration.

What would swimming classes for children be without fun? We think water safety should be learned in fun and engaging ways, which is why we always make time for fun activities, one-on-one engagement, and plenty of splashing. There will also be fun songs to sing!

Once your little one has mastered our Tadpole techniques, they can keep progressing up through our programs. We have age-based and skill-oriented classes for all ages, even adults. Water safety and swimming are skills that can be learned at any age, and it’s never too late to get started. Join us at British Swim School Manhattan to see how fun our swimming classes for children —and adults! — can be.
