Question 1

My child doesn’t know how to swim yet. Can they still join?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We offer private and semi-private "Learn to Swim" lessons for non-swimmers of all ages. For our Artistic Swim teams, however, we do require a basic safety assessment to ensure your child is comfortable in deep water. We recommend starting with our swim lessons and transitioning to the team once they are confident.

Question 2

What is the best age to start Artistic Swimming?

Accepted Answer

We have programs for all ages, but ages 6–10 are the "golden years" to start learning the fundamentals of artistic swimming. We also have teen beginner programs and adult masters classes!

Question 3

Do we need to try out for the team?

Accepted Answer

We call them "evaluations" or "placements" rather than tryouts. We want every swimmer to love the water, so we offer an assessment to place your child in the group that best matches their current skill level, from our Novice group up to our Competitive Junior Olympic teams.

Question 4

Do you offer a trial class?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we frequently offer "First Splash" free trial classes or introductory clinics. This allows your child to meet the coaches and try the sport before you commit to registering for a full session.
