Our “Littles” classes are 30 minutes long and structured as “parent and me”, with full or partial parent participation in the swimming pool, depending on the level. We offer swim classes for babies as young as 2 months old. Babies who are 2-5 months old can enroll in our “Bathtime Babies” class, where both parent and child enjoy one-on-one, uninterrupted time, and will learn water safety skills that help them be safe and comfortable during bathtime. Babies and toddlers who are 6 months+ progress into Level 1, where they will begin to build life skills using our unique “Jump, Turn, Swim” methodology which teaches children to turn around in the water and swim back to the edge to safety. Level 1 swimmers also learn how to go underwater for a full 10 seconds, which is the beginning of water safety. In Level 2, children begin to learn the basics of swimming and will end the level knowing how to kick 5 feet through the water to a destination and how to float on their backs.
Children who are age 3 will enroll in one of our Tot-level swim classes. All 3 year-olds, even those without any prior swimming experience, will start in level 3, and then progress into levels 4 & 5. Parents don’t participate in the water during our tot-level swim classes. All Tot classes have a small class size and a 4:1 ratio. In our Tot levels classes, your child will learn how to kick up to 12 ft through the water, how to hold their breath underwater, and they will advance their “Jump, Turn, Swim” safety skills. You will be amazed at just how much your child will learn during a 30-minute class using our play-based approach that utilizes fun inflatable rings, toys, and fins.
Any child who is age 4+ and does not have prior swimming experience will start in level 6, where they will learn basic water safety skills and will quickly advance to learning how to hold their breath underwater, kick 15ft through the water unassisted, and how to float on their back. In levels 7-9, children will learn how to swim with freestyle arms and get side breaths while swimming. All Kids classes have a small class size and a 4:1 ratio, and are 30-minutes long.
Our Advanced classes are for children ages 6+ who want to master the 4 strokes – freestyle, backstroke, butterfly and breaststroke. In Levels 10 and 11, children will learn how to swim competitively, before graduating to our STEALTH swim team. As part of STEALTH swim team, your child will learn how to build their swimming speed, increase endurance, improve technique, and they will regularly compete in swim meets.
Whether you’re looking to accelerate progress, get one-on-one support, or dive in as an adult — Emler has a swim program for everyone in the family.
We offer swim clinics weekly for children to learn the basics of swimming in a fast-tracked daily program.
We offer private lessons for children who benefit more from a one-on-one environment and/or to help master specific skills.
It’s never too late to learn! Emler Swim School offers encouraging, adult-focused lessons to help you gain confidence in the water, whether you’re overcoming fears, improving technique or just getting started.

Getting to interact with the families that attend Emler and watching the progress of the students.
My desire to make sure that every parent and child has the best experience possible while teaching their children a life saving skill that also provides a lifetime of fun.
I was taught how to swim in a local community pool and by my parents in our backyard pool. My fondest memory was competing in races with the other students as we practiced what we had learned in our lessons.
My favorite memories come from watching students who struggled in the beginning, or had a fear of water, and watching them grow to love the water and swimming. Seeing kids evolve from being afraid to put their face in the water to trying out and joining competitive swim teams will always bring a smile to my face.
