Why Choose SwimBoost?
There are a number of benefits SwimBoost provides to both our existing swimmers and new swimmers coming back to the pool after an extended break.
- They provide great value – swimming every day of the week is like fitting an entire month’s worth of practice and lessons into a shorter amount of time. This is a great refresher course for kids who have been out of the water for a little while or an awesome way for swimmers to work through a specific challenging skill.
- We know repetition works – it takes practice to become a water safe swimmer. Frequent lessons work to build muscle memory and this provides the perfect setting for frequent exposure and practice.
- Kids build great relationships with their Aquatic Educators – seeing their AEs on a daily basis helps kids bond and trust their AEs, which ultimately leads to better learning.
- Water safety – each of our lesson plans include components of water safety skills and we devote an entire day during your SwimBoost week specifically to safety and survival. As your kids head off to summer camps and pool parties, SwimBoost provides a much needed refresher on how to stay safe in and around water.

Finding Your SwimBoost Level
If your child currently swims with us, they should register for a SwimBoost at their current level.
If you are new to KidsCanSwim, there are two ways to pick which KCS level works for you. You can use our KCS Level Finder tool OR attend our free assessment day Friday June 23rd. To register login to our parent portal and under current classes, search for the program “Assessment Day” and book the time and level that works for you!
What Will My Child Learn During the Week?
We have a whole variety of lessons taking place throughout the week. Your child will participate in our usual skill building lessons, our survival lesson and, at the end of the week, will have an assessment lesson to measure all the progress your child will have made in only one week!
During our survival lesson kids will learn what it’s like to swim with their clothes on, how to call for and receive help, how to tread water, and more.
