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.
Black Pearl, as a beloved neighborhood in New Orleans, offers a truly appealing environment for families. Safety is generally good here; it’s often described as a quiet, picturesque neighborhood with a strong sense of community, contributing to a comfortable atmosphere for residents. For education, your children would attend schools within the New Orleans Public Schools system, with access to highly-rated public charter schools like Benjamin Franklin High School and The Willow School. The community atmosphere in Black Pearl is exceptionally strong and welcoming; it’s praised for its charm, comfort, and convenience, with residents enjoying the peaceful surroundings and easy access to nature. Job opportunities are diverse across the New Orleans metropolitan area, with strong sectors in tourism, healthcare, education (proximity to Tulane and Loyola Universities), and port-related industries, all accessible with manageable commutes from Black Pearl.
When it comes to family-friendly attractions and activities, Black Pearl offers a delightful array of experiences right in your neighborhood and nearby. You’ll frequently find yourselves exploring Audubon Park, a sprawling urban oasis just steps away, offering expansive green spaces, lagoons, walking and biking paths, and playgrounds, making it a perfect spot for regular family outings. For a touch of natural history and outdoor education, the Audubon Louisiana Nature Center provides hands-on learning with trails into the hardwood forest and engaging educational exhibits for kids of all ages.
