Lucile Cowle's Swim School

For over five decades, Lucile Cowle Swim School has been a cornerstone of the Burbank community, nurturing a lifelong love of swimming in generations of young swimmers. Passing through the hands of dedicated proprietors, the school remained steadfast in its mission: to equip children with the essential life skill of swimming at an early age. As we approach our fifth ownership transition in 2022, our commitment to this legacy remains as strong as ever.

Our Mission

At Lucile Cowle Swim School, we believe that swimming is more than just a recreational activity - it's a vital life skill and a pathway to a lifelong love of fitness and active living. Our experienced and passionate instructors strive to create a safe, encouraging, and fun learning environment where every child can thrive. We prioritize individualized attention and foster a strong sense of community, creating lasting memories and a foundation of water confidence for our students.

Comprehensive Swimming Instruction

Lucile Cowle Swim School offers a wide array of programs designed to cater to the diverse needs and goals of our students.

Our comprehensive group lessons are tailored to various age groups and skill levels, ensuring a personalized and enriching learning experience for each child. From beginner strokes to advanced techniques, our instructors employ proven methods and engaging activities to build a solid swimming foundation.

For children who desire a more focused approach, we offer private lessons, providing individual attention and customized instruction to address specific needs and accelerate progress. Our stroke clinics provide focused training on mastering specific strokes, enhancing technique and performance.

Acknowledging the unique needs of each child, we offer specialized programs for babies and toddlers, as well as adaptive programs for swimmers with special needs.

Swimmers of all ages and abilities are welcome to join our team, where they'll receive expert coaching, structured training, and opportunities to compete in local meets and USA Swim events. We emphasize individual growth, technical refinement, and a love for the sport, fostering a sense of teamwork and camaraderie among our athletes.
