Swim Classes in Philadelphia, PA
GPAC Swim School, Greater Philadelphia & South Jersey:
Established in 2009, The Greater Philadelphia Aquatic Club (GPAC) Swim School provides group swim classes and private lessons to young children (ages 4+) from the Greater Philadelphia and South Jersey area. Our swim classes are held at the Gloucester County Institute of Technology in Sewell, NJ.

Our swim lessons are offered in a group format and we keep our class sizes small with no more than four swimmers per instructor.
