Certificates
Certifications & Badges
No child is ever “water safe” or “drown-proof.” Swimming instruction is an important layer of water safety, but it never eliminates drowning risk and never replaces active adult supervision.
Train with instructors you can verify.
Every lesson at Sierra Swim Academy is taught by certified professionals in our heated, year-round indoor pool in Reno.
