About the provider

American Swim Academy says it has been trusted by East Bay families since 1973. Its goal is to promote water safety, comfort, and stroke technique for all ages and abilities.

Member Service Director Jasmine, and Newsletter Sign Up Jill.

Structured, consistent program that builds progressively from basic swimming techniques to more advanced and challenging skills. Safety skills are practiced during each class. Beginning swimmers are taught safety back floats and how to return to safety after an accidental fall into the pool. More advanced swimmers are taught endurance swimming, rolling over to their back to rest when tired, and treading water. Small class sizes allow instructors to give swimmers more attention, more feedback, and more opportunities to practice.
