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 aim is to help young children of all swimming abilities to become more familiar around water and more proficient with their swimming skills. Our swim lessons are offered in a group format and we keep our class sizes small with no more than four swimmers per instructor.
