Adaptive Swimming

ASAP (Adaptive Swimming Aquatic Program)

Our Adaptive Swim Program offers water safety swimming skills during open swim time for youth who are neurodivergent and/or disabled. Classes take place in our Warm Water Pool and are led by kind, supportive instructors who help each child feel safe and confident in the water. 

Program Goal: To give children safe and supported access to the pool, so they can have fun, build confidence, and learn water safety swim skills in a way that fits their needs.
