Our Location

Our swim classes are located in Irving, TX just South of Hwy 183 at 2 residences. The exact location will be given after registration for the sake of child safety. Email us with any questions.

Our pools are temperature-controlled, mostly shaded, and comfortably warm. While the hot tub is not used, swimmers enjoy a fun waterfall feature. The main teaching pool includes a full-length front step, a gradual entry with multiple wide steps, and additional steps on each side of the 5-foot-deep end—making it ideal for learning. Intermediate, Swimmer, and select Advanced Beginner classes are held in a nearby 9-foot-deep pool equipped with a diving board.
