Waterworks Aquatics Irvine

Let's Swim!

May 24, 2016
California is one of 10 states in which drowning is the leading cause of death for children under 15 years of age.  In an effort to reduce this statistic and promote water safety, Waterworks Aquatics teaches more than 15,000 children to swim each year at its California locations.  Waterworks Aquatics in Irvine, near the Irvine Spectrum, has been providing swimming lessons year round in a warm enclosed environment for over 10 years. Classes are offered in indoor pools heated between 88 to 92 degrees for children and adults ages three months and older. There are no registration fees and free make up lessons are offered for all lesson cancellations.
 
Waterworks Aquatics provides Private, Semi-Private, Parent and Me, Adult and Stroke Clinic swim classes. It will also offer youth swim teams, summer swim camps, lap swimming, water aerobics, and a venue for birthday parties as well as facilitating aquatic therapy.
 
“The teaching methodology at Waterworks Aquatics is what differentiates us from other swim schools,” said Jon Alpert, founder of Waterworks Aquatics. “We utilize an original instructional philosophy of teaching children to roll to their back for a breath rather than lifting their heads to breathe, which allows children as young as 18 months the capability to swim across the pool. The other key component is the use of a specialized muscle memory teaching technique, where students are taught stroke technique at a very young age. We provide small class sizes with individualized attention. We have had so much success with providing a warm environment along with fast progress.”  
 
With a commitment to “Learning it the Right Way, Right from the Beginning”, Waterworks Aquatics was voted the Best Swim School for five consecutive years (2009-2013) by the readers of Parenting OC Magazine.
