At Old City Swim School it's our mission to teach every single person we work with to love and appreciate the water as much as we do. We've spent countless summers in our local neighborhood pools and beaches growing up. We've played every possible game that you can play in the water - from sharks and minnows to Water Polo.
We've raced and competed at the highest levels of the sport, and we've enjoyed our fair share of lounging around the pool doing absolutely nothing. Regardless of where Life takes you, we want you to be fully prepared to enjoy every pool, lake, and beach that crosses your path. Not only do we want you to be Prepared for Life in and around water, but we want you to enjoy the heck out of it.
