Programming
began in the summer of 1992 as a small pilot in Columbus with 19
children using the Northland Swim Club. Since
that time literally thousands of children and adults from the
central Ohio area have learned to swim at various community and
private pools.
SwimAmerica
uses a ten station approach which is technique oriented and goal
driven! Focusing on a smaller set of skills and
advancing the students as they master the station goals provides
motivation and excitement as they progress from one station to the
next! SwimAmerica, developed by the American
Swimming Coaches Association, (ASCA), is the leader in quality
learn-to-swim programs.
What you
should expect at SwimAmerica is low student to coach ratios,
knowledgeable, professional and caring staff, a fantastic
certificate and sticker reward program, and a safe and enjoyable
environment. Our first priority in teaching
swimming is to make everyone safe around the
water. Second, swimming provides for one of the
best forms of fitness for all ages. And, third,
by becoming comfortable around the water and skilled in basic
swimming techniques one finds the aquatic world is filled with a
multitude of recreational activities that add to the overall
enjoyment of life.
All of our
coaches (instructors) are trained by a certified SwimAmerica
Program Director and receive regular in-servicing on the latest
drills and techniques in stroke progressions.
The curriculum, although very sound, is considered dynamic; always
searching for the best way to emphasize an ever changing
sport. SwimAmerica does not differentiate
between recreational and competitive swimming.
“Good swimming is good swimming,” one should not swim
one way because they want to compete and another way just to
“have fun.”
Whether you
are learning to swim as an adult, placing your child in classes or
bringing your infant or toddler to the pool SwimAmerica has a
program for you!
