Reach Your Swim Class Goals

Every student who swims with Montana Swim Academy has swim class goals to work toward. We help students aim for these goals because they function as a step-by-step guide to better swimming. By ensuring that students meet their goals, our team helps them develop fundamental skills for swimming. And, once they confidently master starting goals, students then have the necessary skills for completing more challenging goals. These not only provide students with some of the best ways to learn how to swim, but they also provide students with a clear goal to aim for. For a guide on which of these classes would best fit your child, try out our swimming level quiz. Otherwise, see the different levels of swim classes and their goals below!
