Mission Statement
Atlantis Aquatics strives to provide a safe, supportive, competitive, and inclusive environment for all athletes to develop their potential and achieve their goals. We work to provide each athlete with the personalized attention necessary to achieve the highest level of success while also cultivating a team-centered environment. We see swimming as more than a sport; it provides athletes with lifelong skills including discipline, self-motivation, and a love of the water.
Vision
Atlantis hopes to empower our swimmers to take their success into their own hands and we provide guidance to help them make choices that will put them on the path to achieving their goals. We work to foster a lifelong love of swimming and hope that all of our athletes will continue in the sport for years to come.
New Swimmers
All new swimmers must be evaluated by a coach for placement.
Based on the evaluation, a swimmer will be recommended to either, swim lessons, the Atlantis Age Group program (Kraken or Leviathan), or the Atlantis Senior program (Hydra, Triton, or Posiden).
