The Emperor Swim Team

Dive into the Excitement:

Is your child interested in exploring the world of swimming beyond just lessons? The Emperor Swim Team offers the perfect stepping stone! We're a pre-competitive program designed to introduce young swimmers to the exciting aspects of swimming as a sport and a healthy, year-round activity, without the overwhelming pressure of a fully competitive team. We provide a supportive and fun environment where your child can develop their skills, build endurance, and discover the joys of being part of a team.

What We Do

  • Learning to Use Equipment: Swimmers will get comfortable using tools like kickboards, pull buoys, and fins. These aren't just gadgets – they help improve technique and make swimming even more fun!
     

  • The Spirit of Sportsmanship: We believe in fair play and being a good sport, win or lose. Your child will learn to support their teammates and respect their competitors.
     

  • Exploring Competition: We'll introduce the basic elements of swim meets, like starts, turns, and finishes, in a relaxed and encouraging way. It is a great way to build confidence and see how much they've improved!
     

  • Understanding Interval Training: Swimmers will get to know how to use the pace clock for interval training. This is a fun way to build speed and endurance, and it's like a game to see if you can make the time!
     

  • Dryland Fun and Fitness: We do exercises out of the water, too! Dryland training helps build strength and flexibility, making swimmers even stronger in the pool.
     

  • Swimming Longer Distances: Your child will build up the ability to swim full lengths of the pool. It's a great feeling of accomplishment!
     

  • Building Endurance: We work on developing the stamina needed to swim for longer periods – essential for any swimmer and a great way to stay fi
     

  • Smooth and Speedy: We'll teach your child how to streamline their body in the water. It's like making yourself into a rocket to glide through the water faster!
     

  • Flipping Out Over Turns: Swimmers will practice their flip turns, making them smoother and more efficient.
     

  • Learning the Individual Medley (IM): Your child will get to try out the IM, which is a mix of all four strokes. It's a fun challenge and a great way to become a more well-rounded swimmer.
     

  • Planning for Success: We'll introduce some simple race strategies, like pacing and knowing when to kick it into high gear.
     

  • Teamwork Makes the Dream Work: The Emperor Swim Team is all about camaraderie. Swimmers cheer each other on, make friends, and learn the value of being part of a team.
     

  • Reading the Whiteboard: It might seem like a secret code at first, but swimmers will learn how to understand the workouts written on the whiteboard by the coaches.
     

  • Circle Swimming Like a Pro: Swimmers will learn how to share a lane with others and practice circle swimming, a skill they'll use throughout their swimming journey.

The Emperor Advantage

  • Growing Confidence: As swimmers improve, they gain confidence in their abilities, and that confidence carries over into other areas of their lives.
     

  • Learning Discipline: The program helps kids develop discipline and time management skills – valuable lessons for school and beyond.
     

  • Staying Active and Healthy: Swimming is a fantastic way to stay fit, build strength, and develop healthy habits.
