About Aquatics

Aquatics
Swim Lessons
We know your child doesn’t play in the pool with lap swim while on vacation. So why learn how to only do laps?
COMPASS aquatics is more than lap swim.
​
This program is unique because we teach how to swim using play.
We don’t find many young kiddos going to a pool and swimming laps for fun. Our lessons teach how to play, swim, and stay safe in the pool, while providing direct instruction on essential skills to help each swimmer grow stronger and more confident with every class.

Jashil
Swim instructor
Teaching kids all the basics reminds me of my childhood when I took my first swim lessons. Time forward now I am the swim coach. Talking kids through all the instructions, making them comfortable in the pool, and making sure their parents get all the updates, I just love this task. Apart from that I learnt many new things from other coaches. Considering their approach gave me a confidence boost I want to share with your children.

Danny
All Levels Swim Instructor
Hi my name is Danny. I have been swimming for 24 years and working with children for my entire life.
I like teaching because I enjoy learning so when I teach someone I get to relive, and experience it from their perspective.
Fun fact about me: I am a storyteller and I write on my free time.
See you at the pool!
