Skills that last a lifetime

At its core, our World Class swimming program—developed by lifelong swimming professionals—focuses on building strong swimming skills, exceptional technique, physical strength, and water safety across longer distances and a variety of strokes.

Here at Aquatic Achievers, our lessons go far beyond just learning to swim. We also nurture foundational skills that support many other areas of a child’s development—often without them even realizing it.

Marlin

Our Marlin Level is designed to refine stroke technique, build endurance, and introduce advanced aquatic skills. Swimmers at this level demonstrate strong control, efficient movement, and readiness for more competitive or performance-based swimming.

Barracuda

The Barracuda Level focuses on refining all four competitive strokes, improving breathing and body control, and introducing advanced skills like turns and underwater streamlines. Swimmers at this level demonstrate strong technique, endurance, and readiness for pre-squad or squad-level training.

Shark

The Shark Level is focused on refining competitive swimming technique, mastering race-ready starts and turns, and building endurance across all four strokes. Swimmers at this level demonstrate strong technical consistency, stamina, and readiness for squad-level or competitive training.

Orca

Our Orca Level represents the highest stage of stroke development before entering competitive or squad-level swimming. Swimmers demonstrate endurance, refined technique, and mastery of starts, turns, and finishes across all four strokes and the individual medley.
