Artistic Swimming Lessons

We are proud to offer weekly lessons from our experienced instructors, an introduction to our magical world of artistic swimming. Each week, you’ll have a 45-minute class for six consecutive weeks, where your swimmer will progress through various artistic swimming skills, leading up to an end-of-session demonstration for family and friends.

    Aquamaid/ Aquaman Assessment Day
    Due to increasing demand and limited availability, the Aquamaids have developed a point system to help determine ranking and placement for those interested in pursuing our year-round competitive program. 
     
    The points associated with that criteria will be added up to determine a ranking.  Athletes will be invited into the competitive program in rank order and the remaining athletes will be placed on a wait list.
