Barron Swim School

Barron’s “Building Skills For Life” mission is front and center at their swim school. The state-of-the-art facility has been designed for a learn-to-swim program for ages four months and up, from beginners to a recreational swim team. Barron’s exclusive curriculum will get children comfortable in and around the water and help them become strong swimmers. Their end goal for students who complete all of their levels is to be able to safely and fully participate in water activities for the rest of their lives. The pool area and water are warm at 90 degrees; no shivering here! They offer a flexible schedule that is month-to-month for our busy families. You can join anytime, and they will pro-rate your monthly tuition. There is pool turnover with fresh water every 60 minutes, and their Ultra Violet System kills 99.9% of bacteria, making it drinking quality water. No red eye, no skin irritation!
