“When you master the elements of air and water, you become an unsinkable force of nature!”

The philosophy behind Elemental Aquatics is simple: water is a vital element to our well-being, and the healing power of water can greatly improve many facets of an individual’s health.  Learning how to swim is essential in San Diego, but our mission is also to create an environment where special needs ( and also “typical”) children and adults, seniors, and those needing a different aquatic experience can use the healing power of warm water to improve motor function, improve symptoms of depression and anxiety, for sensory stimulation, and simple fun and play!  By providing clients with the opportunity to customize their aquatic experience, Elemental Aquatics can provide a comprehensive swim, sensory or wellness experience. Our entire philosophy for our learn- to- swim students is child-centered, and rooted in building trust and having fun. We use guided exploration, story boards, pictures, social stories, PECS, songs, sensory tools, and play, while using developmentally appropriate progressions to enhance learning and to develop confidence.  By growing roots in the community and providing opportunities to serve the families of North San Diego County, Elemental hopes to make positive waves of change for years to come.
