Saturday Swim Lessons

Our Autism Swim 6 WEEK Program is a specialized, inclusive swimming instruction program designed for children and youth on the autism spectrum. Using evidence-based teaching methods, our certified instructors provide one-on-one support in a safe, understanding environment.

The program's primary focus is drowning prevention through vital water safety skills. Participants learn essential safety rules including always waiting for permission before entering water, never swimming alone, and recognizing water hazards. Our adaptive teaching approach helps swimmers build confidence and competence through skills such as floating, climbing along pool sides, safe deck walking, and comfort in deep water.

We understand that individuals with autism often have a strong attraction to water, making specialized 1-on-1 swim instruction critical for safety. Our patient, individualized approach addresses water anxiety, accommodates sensory needs, and celebrates each swimmer's progress at their own pace. By creating an inclusive space where every child can achieve their full potential, we're helping families enjoy water activities safely while building life-saving skills—one safety rule at a time.
