About Us

For the younger children, the Calgary P-Too Learn-to-Swim association offers a unique adaptation of the award winning, Calgary-based, Sears I Can Swim Program. Our program incorporates all aspects of the Sears I Can Swim Program along with many pre-competitive elements, making it a perfect first step to either recreational or competitive swimming.

The P-Too program differs from other learn-to-swim programs because the primary focus is on stroke development. From the very first lesson, coaches work to maximize the time a child actually spends swimming. Small class sizes also allow both group coaching, and one on one instruction. Another advantage to P-Too is that there are only two sessions per year, with most children staying all year. As a result, children stay with the same coach and classmates for most or all of the year. This continuity increases the speed at which children learn; it also adds to their enjoyment because they are able to make friends in their classes.

The P-Too program is divided into three levels: Bronze, Silver and Gold, based on skill. Any child between the ages of 6 and 9 inclusive are welcome, and the minimum level of swimming required to enter bronze is that they are comfortable in deep water without assistance.

If you are interested, classes run twice a week for 45 minutes, and we have sessions at both Glenmore Pool and the Calgary Jewish Center.
