General Overview
At Kick-It Aquatics you can learn to swim (adults and kids) or improve your technique — all in the privacy of our facility. Whether you’re an adult or a youth, learning to swim or looking to win, we contract with the area’s best coaches to provide you with skills and technique tailored specifically to you and your goals.
What makes us special!
A firm belief that everyone should learn the basics to be safe in the water.
Underwater Headphones - We have underwater headphones allowing us to communicate with the swimmer while they are working on their techniques.
Underwater Cameras - With the ability to do time delay, allowing the swimmers time to come to the surface and see how their strokes are looking.
Safety - We believe in being safe both out and in the water. We have certified lifeguards on staff, along with 2 certified CPO (Certified Pool Operators) on staff. We have been registered with both the county and the Iowa Department of Health requiring us to monitor our water quality on a regular basis.
Main Pool
We have a 12.5 yard 3 lane pool which is perfect for both beginner swimmers and those trying to improve their technique.
We offer both group and private lessons in the main pool.
We offer various different levels of group instruction, including:
Learn to Swim - For those that are just starting
Novice swimmers (those unable to float or kick safely with a flotation device for 12 1/2 yards) need to take private lessons. (Parents are welcome to be in the water with their child during these lessons. )
Group Lessons - Main Pool
We offer reasonably priced group swim lessons. The max class size is 3 swimmers per coach.
Due to Covid, currently only 3 non related swimmers are allowed in the main pool at a time. (Our lanes are socially distanced.) Masks are required on deck- they are removed when you are ready to enter the pool itself. After climbing out and drying off, please put your mask back on.
We offer group lessons at a variety of swimming levels:
Learn to Swim
For those just starting to swim to the point of being a safe swimmer. If your trying to be more comfortable in the water, or just want to be stronger, this is the class for you!
Minimum requirements - Willing to put their face in the water, float independently with no floation devices, and kick safely 12 1/2 yards with a floatation device. (For those unable to meet these requirements must take private lessons.)
Advanced Lessons
This is for a swimmer who is safe and feels comfortable in the water, but wants to be a stronger swimmer. During these classes they will learn the fundamentals of Free, Breast, Back, Fly Strokes, and Elementary Back Stroke.
Minimum Requirements - Able to swim 50 yards continuously without any floatation devices.
Stroke Technique
This is for the advanced swimmer looking to better their technique or increase their endurance. During these classes the strokes will be fine tuned, flip turns and open turns will be enhanced.
Minimum Requirements - Instructor Approval is required.
Private Lessons - Main Pool
Open to all ages and skill levels. This will be a one on one session with a coach. Parents are welcome to be in the water with their child during these lessons.
