We’re committed to tracking and celebrating your progress. Each program provides five clear goals and you progress at your own pace. These goals guide our lessons and ensure you get instruction that fits your unique skills and learning style.
You join a small group and receive individual attention and tailored instruction. Water acclimation and water survival programs have a 4:1 student-to-instructor ratio, with stroke development programs maintaining a 6:1 student-to-instructor ratio.
Our step-by-step program focuses on water acclimation, survival skills, and stroke development. The familiar format of each lesson offers comfort and consistency as you progress through our levels, making each transition smooth and seamless.
Swimmers can start as early as 3 months old—because it’s never too soon to learn water safety. There’s no age limit, so whether you’re learning as a toddler, teenager, or anywhere in between, we have a program to help you become a safer swimmer.
SoHo, New York, best known for its trendy boutiques and historic architecture, also offers a surprisingly family-friendly side for parents with young children. Tucked among its cobblestone streets and cast-iron buildings are interactive museums, playful installations, and cozy playgrounds that make SoHo a dynamic and enriching place to explore with kids.
Indoor fun in SoHo is as creative as the neighborhood itself. The Museum of Ice Cream invites families into a colorful world of multi-sensory installations, complete with fun photo ops and sweet treats. Around the corner, the Color Factory is a vibrant space filled with immersive exhibits that spark imagination through color and movement. For sensory-focused play, the Sloomoo Institute, just beyond SoHo’s borders, lets kids create and explore in a hands-on world of slime and gooey textures.
Outdoor play is easy to find at Vesuvio Playground, a charming neighborhood park with climbing structures, sports courts, and a seasonal splash area for hot summer days. Families can also enjoy self-guided or group walking tours, where even the youngest explorers can appreciate the unique architecture and public art that makes SoHo one of Manhattan’s most visually exciting neighborhoods.
Aquatic activities are available within walking distance or a short subway ride. In addition to Vesuvio’s mini splash pool, families can visit the Tony Dapolito Recreation Center in the West Village or Chelsea Recreation Center, both offering indoor pools with open swim times. During warmer months, the Hamilton Fish Pool on the Lower East Side provides outdoor swimming fun, while Asphalt Green’s Battery Park campus offers a top-notch indoor facility with family-friendly features.
