SwimJim is a well-established New York City swim school with over 40 years of experience, operating multiple indoor pool locations across Manhattan's Upper East Side and Upper West Side. All pools are located inside residential buildings, maintaining warm water temperatures of 84–88°F depending on location.
Classes are offered for all ages and skill levels, from parent-child infant classes to advanced stroke refinement and adult lessons. SwimJim keeps class sizes intentionally small — with only two lessons per half-hour time slot — so every child receives personalized attention. Instructors are USSSA-certified and hold current CPR and First Aid certifications, with a professional lifeguard always on duty.
Manhattan locations include Upper East Side pools at Yorkshire Towers (305 E 86th St) and Two Sutton Place North (1113 York Ave), as well as Upper West Side pools at 808 Columbus Ave and 666 West End Ave. Enrollment and current schedules are available at swimjim.com.
