Philosophy

At Love Swimming, we have a passion for teaching students of all ages in a way that is FUN and builds confidence. With safe, small classes, we strive to provide swimmers with a strong foundation for a lifetime of love and respect  for the water. We believe that swimming is the best exercise for babies, kids and adults, and strive to teach in a way that always encourages individuals to explore beyond their fears and expectations.

Facility

Our facility uses heated pools to create an ideal learning environment where swimmers are always warm and comfortable. This is key to accelerating the learning process and developing strong safety skills. Our facilities also offer changing rooms, storage cubbies, and a shower room.

History

Love Swimming began in 2002 after the founders taught hundreds to swim at Newman School in Uptown New Orleans. Soon families started bringing younger siblings to lessons, and though we made progress and loved teaching very young students, the cool water and the large pool created many obstacles for the little ones.

We attended a reputable Water Babies conference where we learned about above ground pools that can be heated and outfitted with salt water systems. This would make it easier on our swimmers’ hair, skin, and eyes. After  locating a small office on Magazine Street whose owner allowed us to place a pool inside, we opened on Valentine’s Day 2002.

Within a year or so, we outgrew the tiny space. We purchased a warehouse on South Front Street where we placed two pools and were able to teach multiple classes at once, making our lessons more convenient for families with more than one swimmer.

We feel VERY grateful to ALL of our former and current students for believing in us and making our dreams come true at Love Swimming. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!!! We work diligently to ensure that our lessons are effective, safe, and FUN for students of all ages.
