Our Program

At KATY Aquatics, we believe there is a difference between a swim lesson and learning to swim. This is why we utilize the nationally recognized learn-to-swim program, SwimAmerica.

SwimAmerica ™ is a curriculum that has been developed by a committee of the American Swimming Coaches Association to provide the finest learn-to-swim progression in the world.

Our coaching staff has been professionally prepared to offer your child the very latest in teaching and learning.  The program is “goal-driven” and “technique oriented”. The program is operated by using ten stations or levels.  Swimmers will move to the higher skill groups as they achieve the advancement goals of their present group.

Our program is goal driven, meaning there are specific skills that must be mastered before progressing to the next level.  We will be able to reward the swimmer at every phase of their progression and build their confidence as they are learning to swim.

By being technique oriented, we are bringing more emphasis to teaching proper stroke mechanics from the very beginning.   Our coaches will emphasize correct learning from the very first lesson. 

All SwimAmerica programs are taught by members of the American Swimming Coaches Association (ASCA) who are certified to teach swimming. Our coaches are in-water instructors and are experts in proper breathing and stroke mechanics. SwimAmerica focuses on the critical skills your child needs to achieve in order to advance through our program, and be safe in and around water for a lifetime.

Please note that our pools are kept at competition temperature around 82 degrees. We recommend purchasing rash guard shirts and swim caps to help maintain body temperature
