Swim Lessons

Our Mission Statement
Swim-in Zone, Inc. is dedicated to quality instruction by a serious staff of committed instructors in water safety, water confidence, and swimming in a friendly atmosphere where learning is fun, at maximum value to the student.

Welcome to Swim-in Zone Swimming Academy. We teach swimming from morning to night weekdays, Saturday mornings and Sunday afternoons. Our trained teachers love to teach babies, children and adults how to swim. Our facility was designed to maximize the learning potential of new swimmers. Our water is warm-86º to 88º and most of the pool is 4 ft. deep. Who can learn anything if they are freezing? You will see the difference when your child is enrolled in a swim school whose mission and business is water safety and swimming lessons.

We are the only swim instruction program in the Lehigh Valley that uses DEMAND SCHEDULING. (Click here for Demand Scheduling PDF). The classes are arranged around YOUR schedule. It is possible to have one child in a parent/child class, another in a Level 1 group and another in a Level 3 group, all at the same time! We have 4 sessions per year- Fall (14 weeks), Winter (12 weeks), Spring (15 weeks) and Summer (11 weeks). Our sessions are longer because we have found that the children progress best when they have an adequately long lesson series with the same teacher and classmates.

Our curriculum is designed to provide learning, fun and safety skills to help the children learn self rescue as well as assist others, even the little ones can learn to yell for help. Swim-in Zone takes great care to place all students into the class which provides the greatest potential for learning, satisfaction and fun. We certainly want to avoid the frustration caused by moving along too fast or introduce skills for which the student has no firm basis. Please look in our handbook to find a description of classes for yourself or your child’s age group. You will also find an algorithm of placement which offers the best chance of producing a happy and confident student with a solid set of skills onto which to build a lifetime of swimming competency. Our classes for age 3 to 1st grade have a teacher to student ratio of 4:1 and are 30 minutes long. Those in 2nd grade and up have a teacher to student ratio of 5:1 and are 45 minutes in length.
