Propel Swim Academy is a year-round swim school at 43160 Amberwood Plaza in South Riding, teaching developmental lessons for ages 4 months through adult in three warm-water pools with their own filtration and UV purification. Classes run 30 minutes with a cap of six parent/child pairs, and the curriculum pairs stroke technique with personal survival and water-safety skills. Its Summer Swim Camps and Spring Break Swim Camps are 30 minutes a day over 4 or 5 days, keeping the same teacher and classmates all week and including a Water Safety Day, so the camp is a short daily lesson block rather than a day camp.

Powered by GooglePropel is the absolute BEST swim school. The staff is friendly and warm, my kids are so comfortable with everyone there. The lessons are effective and my kids have come a long way since starting there. We love propel and are so happy to be part of the propel family!
Very kind, organized, and passionate staff. The school truly works as a well-oiled machine. My kids are very anxious around the water but this is the only school I felt they have a noticeable improvement month to month. We will recommend Propel to anyone seeking quality swim lessons and fantastic teachers.
We’ve had such a wonderful experience with Propel Swim Academy! The instructors who work with infants and toddlers are absolutely fantastic, patient, knowledgeable, and truly great with little ones. They make learning to swim feel safe and fun, which has made a huge difference for our child’s confidence in the water. The facility is always clean and well maintained, which we really appreciate as parents. It’s clear they take pride in providing a welcoming and hygienic environment. The only improvement I’d love to see is the addition of a swimsuit water extractor. Other than that, we couldn’t be happier and highly recommend Propel Swim Academy to other families.
Propel Swim Academy has been such a great experience for us. The facility is beautiful and clean, and you can tell they really care about keeping everything organized. All the instructors are professionals and so nice. I love getting the app updates, and the supervisors actually check in with me about how my daughter is doing. I do want to give a special shout-out to my daughter’s swim instructor Alan. He’s a true professional, so friendly, always smiling, and he makes swim lessons fun. My eight year old daughter absolutely loves him and can’t wait to get to class. She’s come so far in just eight months. With all my heart, I do recommend Propel for parents who are looking for top tier swim lessons for their kids.
My family has been with Propel since 2021. We did the infant class and now we are working our way through the levels. The teachers are so great with the kids, remembering their names long after they graduate to a new level. They are also so commited to the kids developing and progressing onto new skills. The teachers and deck supervisors communicate seamlessly to help make it all happen! And the owners Nick and Linda are absolutely fabulous, they truly believe in their mission and it shows with how the swim school runs! Thanks for keeping my kids safe around water!
