Young children participating in SchlitterSwim Swimming Lessons.

Schlitterswim Program

Welcome to the SchlitterSwim program! This program has been implemented at Schlitterbahn to make children feel safe and to have fun in the water. Each of these programs uses Jeff Ellis Swimming ideas, strategies, and certified instructors to fulfill the goals of the class.

Making sure your child gets swimming lessons is one of the most important ways you can provide them with a vital summer safety skill, and at Schlitterbahn, we make learning fun and safe!

Our Certified Instructors* and Lifeguards know how to build your child’s confidence so they can have fun in the water and feel safe at the same time. All lessons take place at Schlitterbahn.

To participate, a child must be:

  • Must be 3–10 years old.
  • Must be accompanied by a responsible adult / older sibling.
  • Must be ready to learn!

*All of our Certified Instructors and Lifeguards at Schlitterbahn go through intensive training with the top training program in the country – Ellis and Associates, the recognized leader in aquatics training.
