San Dimas Welcomes New Aqua-Tots Swim School to Keep Families Safe in and Around Water
Trusted swim school continues California growth as demand for life-saving swim education rises ahead of National Water Safety Month
San Dimas, CA, April 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aqua-Tots Swim School, a global leader in swim instruction for more than three decades, is continuing its expansion across California with the opening of a new location in San Dimas, reinforcing its commitment to year-round water safety in communities where access to water is a part of everyday life.
With multiple locations already serving families across the state, the San Dimas school reflects a growing need for consistent, high-quality swim education throughout Southern California, where pools, beaches and recreational water spaces are deeply woven into daily routines.
The opening comes ahead of National Water Safety Month in May, a time dedicated to raising awareness around drowning prevention. While the observance brings seasonal attention to the issue, Aqua-Tots emphasizes that water safety requires ongoing practice, with year-round lessons designed to build confidence, reinforce skills and help children respond safely in real-life situations.
“In Southern California, water is not occasional. It is everywhere,” said Erin Lobato, general manager of Aqua-Tots San Dimas. “I have seen firsthand how important it is for kids to feel confident and capable in the water. Coming back to Aqua-Tots to lead this school, in a community that means so much to me, is incredibly special because we are giving families skills that truly last a lifetime.”
Owned by Julie Sullins, the San Dimas school represents a shared commitment to both community impact and the Aqua-Tots mission.
“This is more than opening a business. It is about creating a place where families feel supported and where children can build confidence in a safe, encouraging environment,” said Sullins. “I believe deeply in what Aqua-Tots stands for and the difference these lessons make, and I am proud to bring that to San Dimas and the surrounding communities.”
Aqua-Tots San Dimas offers programs for every age and ability, from toddlers to adults, including adaptive lessons for children with disabilities. Lessons are available seven days a week, with small class sizes of one, two or four students to ensure individualized attention and steady progression.
Located at 610 W. Arrow Highway, the 7,500-square-foot, state-of-the-art facility is designed for both comfort and convenience. The indoor school features a 30-by-70-foot pool with 18 swim lanes, allowing multiple classes to run simultaneously, along with 15 changing rooms to support a seamless experience for families.
Serving San Dimas, La Verne, Claremont, Ontario, Charter Oak and nearby communities, the school provides a consistent, controlled environment where swimmers can develop and refine skills regardless of weather or season.
To celebrate the grand opening, Aqua-Tots San Dimas is offering 50% off the first month for families who enroll in two or more lessons per week. Families are encouraged to tour the facility, meet the team and explore class options.
