Swim Hawaii

Swimming is a "learned skill". At Swim Hawaii our philosophy is that efficient swimming is best taught by paying attention to proper stroke technique.

Swimmers progress through a program of multiple skills levels, mastering the skills at one level before moving into the next.

WELCOME TO SWIM HAWAII!

Super Swim.  Swim Hawaii created "Super Swim" to take swimmers beyond beginning swimming. In Super Swim, we teach all four competitive strokes, emphasizing correct stroke mechanics.

In addition to instructional swimming drills, Super Swim also offers a unique adjunct to the class with the "Long Swim." Following the initial 25 minutes of stroke instruction, all swimmers spend the next 10 to 20 minutes working on their swimming endurance under the supervision of staff specifically assigned to this activity.

Beginning Swimming.  Swim Hawaii offers beginning classes for children, age 4 and above. Emphasis is placed on mastering fundamental skills in Freestyle & Backstroke, with the goal to move up to Super Swim. We also offer beginning classes for Adults.

Swimming Technique Classes.   Swim Hawaii offers a wide range of classes for improving stroke technique for Competitive Swimmers, Triathletes, Masters swimers, and recreational swimmers.

Swim Hawaii has offered swimming instruction since 1986. It was founded by Dr. Jan Prins, former U.H. swim coach and Associate Professor in Biomechanics at the University of Hawaii.
