SwimSure™ Curriculum

The Gold Standard of Swim

Setting the Benchmark for Safety, Progress, and Confidence

What Is SwimSure™?

Every child’s swim journey is unique, but the goal is always the same: safety, strength, and confidence in the water.

That’s why we teach through SwimSure™, a proven philosophy that combines decades of expertise with a nurturing, play-based approach. Built on measurable progress and child development principles, SwimSure™ gives every swimmer the foundation to learn safely, grow confidently, and love the water for life.

To bring SwimSure™ to life, our teachers follow a detailed teaching framework that outlines 100+ developmental milestones across 11 progressive levels. This nationally proven and Emler Swim School Network exclusive program ensures children move forward with clear goals and purpose. Each level is designed with progressive developmental milestones, so kids advance step by step in a way that feels encouraging, never overwhelming. 

Children learn best when they’re having fun, which is why SwimSure™ is play-based at its core. Props, songs, games, and prizes keep swimmers engaged and learning exciting and memorable. Lessons the highlight of your child’s week, while still building real skills and lifelong safety.

With SwimSure™, every child has a clear path forward, and every parent has the confidence of knowing their swimmer is learning through the gold standard in swim education.
