Pirates and Mermaids Swim Academy is a Rexburg swim school, open year-round since 2019, offering leveled swim lessons and water-safety instruction for children (preschool ages 3–5 and beginners 6+) and adults, plus private pool rentals. It is a swim-lesson provider rather than a kids' summer camp.

Powered by GoogleDodie and her team are amazing, patient and passionate about what they do. They are upbeat and a joy. My son has learned more in swim in two weeks than he has in a long time.
My two year old and I did the parent/child class and we loved it! My daughter looked forward to coming every day and she loved her teacher, Dodie! We came one day for open swim and she said “where Dodie go?” :) We learned so much and my daughter made so much progress being comfortable in the water and learning new skills. Thank you! 😊
If I could give Pirates and Mermaids Swim Academy 10 stars, I absolutely would. I’ve had four kids go through this swim program for most of their lives, and the growth I’ve seen has been nothing short of incredible. Their instructors have a real gift — not just with teaching technique, but with building confidence, safety awareness, and a genuine love for being in the water. What makes this place stand out is how seriously they take water safety while still keeping every lesson fun, positive, and perfectly paced. Each child has been treated as an individual, not just another student. Their progress has been consistent, and the instructors always know exactly when to push, when to encourage, and when to celebrate milestones. The communication is great, the sessions are well-structured, and the environment feels welcoming and professional every single time. My kids look forward to every lesson, and the results speak for themselves — strong swimmers, confident in the water, and fully understanding how to stay safe. This is hands-down the best swim instruction in Rexburg (and honestly the best we’ve ever found anywhere). Highly, highly recommended. If you’re looking for instructors who truly care and consistently deliver amazing results, this is the place.
I have been telling everyone about these lessons! My kids had had some bad experiences with other lessons in the past with other places and the instructors here met both of my kids with happy and warm personalities and jumped right in and got to work. They pushed my kids to grow as much as possible but also have so much fun. Every day my kids wake up so excited to come to lessons. We love the safety lessons as well as small focused classes and I can tell the teachers and owner both care a ton about the kids! They were also great with communication both in getting signed up and where they need to be and how they are progressing. They have both progressed a ton and we will for sure be back! 💕
We love taking swimming lessons here! It’s great for all ages. I’ve enjoyed the mommy and me class with my littles and my older kids had a good experience in more advanced swimming lessons. I like that they start every lesson with a safety topic. They are patient with my oldest son with Autism/ADHD.
