Our Program in Action
Where Competition Meets Fun!
Competitive swimming is a fantastic way to build resilience, improve fitness, challenge personal bests, and most importantly, have fun while discovering your potential!
Our passionate team of swim coaches brings a diverse range of experiences, skills, and certifications, enabling them to create safe, engaging, and transformational swim experiences for every child.
Led by Head Coach Jared Butler (Texas Longhorns alum!), the team inspires and motivates swimmers to achieve their goals while supporting their holistic development as both children and athletes.
There are four squads, and swimmers will undergo tryouts and be assigned to the appropriate squad at the coach’s discretion.
Opportunities for squad progression are available twice a year.

THE WORLD BEYOND
X Lab events inspire swimmers to learn from a wider community spread locally and abroad. As part of the competitive programme, swimmers participate in meets, camps, and more where they’ll have the opportunity to meet swimmers from all over the world, experience different styles of learning, and form an expansive worldview that’ll enrich them in the pool and beyond.
Swimmers First
Our programmes apply internationally-proven pedagogies to optimise each swimmer’s progression, while minimising the risk of injury and burnout. Keeping the size of our competitive squad small also means that our swimmers benefit from personalised attention from coaches and a supportive community rooting for them as they pursue their goals.
Consistency Is Key
Hosting trainings in our sheltered, Olympic-sized competitive pool allows for training to take place rain or shine! Access to world-class gym facilities facilitate strength and conditioning exercises, so swimmers benefit from consistent, well-rounded training, all year round.
