Dolphin Swim School is located at 5461 Louise Ave, Encino Ca. 91316 -- at Louise and Ventura Blvd (North of Ventura Blvd; approx. 1/2 mile down the street from My Gym & Coffee Bean on Louise Ave). Two heated pools. Dolphin Swim School utilizes the Progressive Float Method and the certified SwimSafe Program. In Fact, Dolphin Swim School is the ONLY school authorized and certified to teach SwimSafe in Los Angeles and the San Fernando Valley. More parents trust our proven and effective teaching methods. Amazing results! The SwimSafe curriculum is a gentle step-by-step way of teaching how the water "works." The tummy float and back float is stressed and mastered initially to familiarize children with water buoyancy. This sets the foundation so the critical skills such as kicking and stroke techniques may be "layered" into the learning to swim progression. SwimSafe combines swim techniques with water safety skills to create safe, confident and happy swimmers. Survival Swimming and Water Safety Skills is the priority!! A focused learning environment ensures that each skill is effectively mastered. SwimSafe is a scientifically backed training program designed to nurture and develop your Child's Natural Swim abilities and reflexes. Dolphin Swim School provides water safety instruction for children of all ages. We teach 16 months (level 1) to swim team readiness (level 6). Visit our Encino Swim School Today.
