LES BOIS SWIM ACADEMY
Education of our students, parents, staff, and the learn-to-swim community. Beyond being an imperative life skill, swimming has many positive impacts on the physical and social development of our students — starting as young as 3 months. Our Baby Gills program is an introduction to the aquatic environment and amplifies cognitive benefits that occur early on in those tiny, growing brains. This initial program and introduction to the water will carry with each participant as they advance throughout the academy.

Come join our family
We love teaching and working with every student who enters our doors. Every day there is a new success story, a new smile, a frightened child who begins to understand the aquatic world. We work to build smiles, confidence, and success.
​
Our half an hour, once-a-week, swim lesson philosophy works! We love to see the swimmers who consistently attend their weekly class become comfortable, confident, and skilled in the water.
​
We Believe:
​
-
Simple steps and solid building blocks lead to long-term success
-
That teaching breath control, balance, and buoyancy is key to creating a comfortable, accomplished swimmer
-
That we have the best jobs in the world
-
That consistent reinforcement in our year-round, once-per-week, half-hour lessons builds success and confidence
-
In introducing children as young as twelve weeks old to the aquatic environment
-
Learning to back float is a life-saving skill
