5 Swim Lessons at Imagine Swimming

@imagineswimming

Imagine Swimming is NYC's premiere learn-to-swim school, sharing a love of the water from infants to adults. Respect and understanding for the aquatic world is carried throughout the student's journey at the school and into their daily lives. Beyond classes, Imagine offers an array of competitive opportunities with it's water polo and synchronized teams, to its nationally recognized swim teams.

As educators, emphasis is placed on each instructor's individuality in the belief that it's the Singer, not the Song, and the presentation of the lesson is everything. Imagine Swimming features highly developed teaching methods and rigorous training, however, it is the teachers, in the moment, who must pass on our mantra - safe, fun, for life. This process is collaborative, rooted in play, and requires individual expression with every student.

We were founded in 2002 by Casey Barrett and Lars Merseburg, friends and former world-class swimmers who met in New York City after completing their NCAA and international swimming careers. Originally operated out of the Hunter College pool on E. 69th Street and Park Avenue, the school has grown to include locations spread across Manhattan and Brooklyn. We currently welcome over 4,000 children each week to our lessons, in addition to our competitive team offerings.

In addition to locations throughout Manhattan and Brooklyn, Imagine Swimming has multiple Flagship facilities in Tribeca, the UWS and Crown Heights.
