Make a splash this spring and dive into fun, fitness, and skill-building with the City of Los Alamitos Recreation Aquatics Program! Whether you’re introducing your little one to the water or helping your child take their swimming skills to the next level, there’s something for everyone this season.
All classes take place at the MWR Aquatic Training Center, located on the Joint Forces Training Base in Los Alamitos (11360 Valley Forge Ave #44), offering a safe and supportive environment for swimmers of all ages and abilities.
Spring Session 1 runs April 13 through May 9, featuring four-week sessions with 25-minute classes designed to fit perfectly into your schedule.
Families can choose from a variety of class options tailored to different age groups and skill levels:
Parent & Me (Ages 6 months–3 years): Introduce your child to the water through fun, guided exploration. This class helps build comfort and foundational skills such as blowing bubbles, kicking, floating, and wall holds. A swimming adult is required to accompany each child in the water.
Little Fish (Ages 3–6): These classes offer five skill-based levels designed to help young swimmers grow in confidence and ability. Be sure to review the class descriptions to find the best fit for your child.
Big Fish (Ages 6–15): With five progressive levels, this program helps older children refine techniques, build endurance, and become stronger, more confident swimmers.
Looking for more personalized instruction? The program also offers Private Swim Lessons for all skill levels, perfect for swimmers who want one-on-one attention and faster progress. Lessons are available on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons and Saturday mornings. Participants can register for one day per week (four classes per session) or two days per week (eight classes per session), with each lesson lasting 25 minutes. Ages for private lessons are (6 months-15 yrs).
From first splashes to advanced strokes, the City of Los Alamitos Aquatics Program is dedicated to helping swimmers of all ages build confidence, stay active, and have fun in the water.
