levels.
Pre-Competitive and

For those just starting out, we offer Learn to
Swim programs. With low swimmer to coach ratios and
enthusiastic, patient instruction, beginners can get their feet wet
and begin to develop familiarity with this wonderful sport.
Not yet ready to compete? Katy has
developmental Pre-Competitive programs designed to teach stroke
mechanics and skills a swimmer will use for a lifetime of fun and
fitness.
We even offer a high school conditioning program
for swimmers working to improve, or maintain, technique and fitness
levels.

Competitive
Swimming
Katy Aquatics uses a "progressive" age group
program designed to help the development of a child physically,
mentally and emotionally in a systematic fashion. A well defined,
long-term approach of gradually increasing degrees of
commitment is essential to reach peak performance levels during a
swimmer’s physiological prime.
The emphasis in the early stages of participation
is placed on developing technical skills and a love for the
sport. In the later years, a more demanding physical and
psychological challenge must be introduced to the training program.
In addition to emphasizing long-term rather than short-term
results, it is also important that Katy Aquatics establishes
training groups of swimmers who are compatible in respect to
abilities, commitment levels and goals.
Competitive training groups are set up by age
groupings, and sub-grouped by ability as measured by defined
criteria. These groups train from 3 to 5 times weekly,
depending on age and level.
