About AIM Aquatics Program at Don Cook Natatorium

We believe swimming is a necessary life skill for every child. The Dive In and Learn to Swim program, is a great way to be introduced into lifesaving skills at an early age. Each session includes 4 consecutive days of swim lessons. Water safety instruction will be integrated into the lessons throughout the program. Our certified instructors use a progressive teaching approach that allows swimmers to learn to swim comfortably at an individual pace, while creating a learning environment that is not only fun but allows for maximum skill retention.
