About Angelfish Swimming
All instructors are Lifeguard certified and have completed the Angelfish Learn to Swim certification program.
We teach swimmers from 6 months to about 6 years old.
A Note from Miss Connie
Come swim in my warm 90°F backyard pool and enjoy a gentle, fun approach to learning to swim. Our covered pool—built by Extreme Makeover: Home Edition in 2007—allows us to teach year‑round. Classes are kept small with 4 swimmers per 30‑minute lesson, giving each child focused attention. We focus on water safety, confidence, foundational skills, and stroke development. Many swimmers continue on to swim teams, and several of our special‑needs swimmers have gone on to compete in the Special Olympics.
Special Needs Swimmers
We welcome swimmers with special needs please reachout and we will let you know how we can help.
