About Splash Fit Swim Club

Where Swimmers Are Made. Communities Are Strengthened.

Our Story

Founded in Harlem, Splash Fit Swim Club exists to make quality swim instruction and water safety accessible to every family. What began as a small group of aquatic professionals teaching children to swim has grown into one of New York City’s leading community-based aquatics organizations.

Today, Splash Fit serves hundreds of swimmers each year through learn-to-swim lessons, competitive swim programs, water safety education, lifeguard training, and community partnerships. From toddlers taking their first steps in the water to athletes competing at the highest levels of age-group swimming, we help every swimmer reach their next milestone.

What We Teach

More Than Swim Lessons

Swimming is a life-saving skill. Every lesson we teach is built around safety, confidence, technique, and personal growth.

Our programs include:

Whether your goal is learning to float, improving technique, earning a lifeguard certification, or preparing for championship competition, our instructors meet every swimmer where they are.

Community

Built for Our Community

Splash Fit was created to address a simple reality: too many families lack access to affordable, high-quality swim instruction.

We partner with schools, nonprofits, housing developments, foundations, and community organizations throughout New York City to expand access to swimming and reduce barriers that have historically prevented children and adults from learning this essential life skill.

Through scholarships, community initiatives, and strategic partnerships, we continue working toward a future where every New Yorker has the opportunity to become a confident swimmer.
