"Learning it the right way, right from the beginning"

Waterworks Aquatics offers the finest swimming lessons in Orange, San Diego and Los Angeles Counties. We have chosen to share our love of swimming with children and believe there is a swimmer in every child. At Waterworks Aquatics, we pride ourselves on teaching the necessary skills needed to become a comfortable, proficient swimmer right from the beginning.

With a supportive atmosphere and child-centered approach, our goal as a swim center is to encourage children to have fun in the water while improving their water skills. Our proven teaching methods and caring instructors will allow your child to learn and grow within our program.

A good swimmer is one who can move through the water in an efficient and almost effortless manner. Our swim school takes each student from one step to the next without skipping crucial skills or giving children a false sense of security in the water. To achieve the strength, endurance, and flawless technique of a true athlete, one must begin with a solid, foundational program that emphasizes buoyancy, breath control, and proper stroke development, coupled with basic water safety skills.



What is Waterworks Aquatics?

Waterworks Aquatics offers 3 premier swim schools in Southern California. Our main aquatic center based in Irvine provides quality swim lessons and aquatic programs to the community of South Orange County. What separates us from other programs is our state of the art swim facility which offers 3 heated indoor pools and 1 Junior Olympic size outdoor pool.

The second facility is located in Carlsbad at the Bressi Village Center off of Palomar Airport Road. This location will include 2 indoor heated pools, which will provide swim lessons and other aquatics programming year round to the following communities; Carlsbad, Oceanside, Escondido, Encinitas, San Marcos, Rancho Santa Fe, Vista, San Elijo, Cardiff by the Sea, Bressi Ranch, and San Diego.

Our third location is a leased single pool located at the JEM Community Center in Beverly Hills designed to serve the Los Angeles County community.

The service we provide you and your child extends beyond swim lessons. Lasting relationships are built through a "triangle of communication" between every parent, child, and instructor. We carefully match our students to an instructor who can best understand their capabilities and help them reach their full potential. Each lesson is structured yet flexible to meet the needs of each individual, which allows our students to steadily progress and thrive in a safe, comfortable environment.
