More Levels, More Confidence, More Fun
The J Splash Academy Swim School and Splash Babies, at the Staenberg Family Complex in Creve Coeur, is an all-encompassing learn-to-swim program designed to create confident, strong, lifelong swimmers of all ages, starting at six months.

We are excited to announce that we have partnered with the British Swim School to teach lessons at the Marilyn Fox Building in Chesterfield.
The British Swim School (BSS) has been dedicated to teaching water survival skills to children as young as three months for more than 40 years. Like the J, BSS believes it is mission-critical to teach children to swim and to be safe while enjoying the water. With its large instructor base and our large pool, we will be able to serve even more families in the Chesterfield area.
BSS lessons will be available at various times each day.
