Conveniently Located for Swimmers in Charlotte
Many people associate swimming with the summertime, but consistency is necessary when learning a new skill. Contrary to popular belief, a first-time swimmer should expect to wait at least several months before they’re considered a fully competent and safe swimmer. That’s why our program is held year-round with ongoing enrollment. Contact our customer service team for more information or find a location and enroll online!
