Passionate Staff and Quality Training

EMAC Swim Lessons is proud to offer high-quality instruction through our dedicated coaches. Each coach undergoes comprehensive training in our curriculum and teaching methods, which includes studying materials, watching instructional videos, and hands-on practice.


Our staff engages in ongoing training to become Adaptive Swim Whisperers, which enhances their ability to support students facing challenges. They also undergo lifeguard training to ensure a safe environment.


We strive to be the leading swim school in the Lehigh Valley by investing in our instructors' continuous improvement, providing a safe and positive learning experience for all students.

Swim Whisperers

At EMAC, our dedicated staff members undergo training to become Certified by Swim Angelfish. Our Certified Coaches specialize in working with individuals who have autism, anxiety, sensory needs, motor challenges, or those who learn differently. We begin with one-on-one lessons to ensure a comfortable and safe start. Once our swimmers understand safety protocols and feel more at ease, we transition them to group lessons (2 students/1 instructor) taught by a Swim Whisperer. We understand the unique needs of each individual, and we're here to support and guide you every step of the way. Don't hesitate to reach out today to learn more and start your first adaptive class!
