Excel Aquatics

Specialties

Your child deserves to learn basic water safety skills the right way, and have a fantastic experience that teaches them to love the water. This is why at Excel, we teach swimming lessons as small group classes, using a personalized curriculum with an emphasis on water safety and FUN. Not only are our classes proven and effective, but they are also enjoyable, making swimming lessons an activity that your child will look forward to week after week.

In addition to swimming lessons, we also offer triathlon swim training. Our triathlon swim training program is geared towards triathletes who are looking to not only improve their technique, but also train in a structured environment run by professional coaches and competitive collegiate swimmers.
