Congratulations to Coach Matthew for being recognized as the employee of the month. It's clear that his hard work, dedication, and contributions have made a significant impact on our team here at SWSS!
Mathew is one of our most senior instructors and always knows how to make his students and coworkers laugh. He brings a great energy into work every single day that all of his kids love, and while he likes to have fun, Mathew still likes to instill a hard work ethic in all of his kids. Each student knows that they are going to swim hard and giggle even harder when they come to class each day. So join us in congratulating Coach Mathew in his well deserved award.

13/11/2023

I chose Matthew to be " Student of the month", because he was the first student that I had the experience of teaching adaptive lessons too. While teaching Matthew he challenged me and my teaching style, which helped me get comfortable with using a different way of teaching my lessons. When Matthew first came to SWSS he was not comfortable in the water and is now able to do laps of rollovers unassisted. Congrats Matthew, I am so proud of the progress you have made and can't wait to see how much more you make.

In the Water with The Wallens

For more than 40 years, our family-owned and operated swim school has been providing swim lessons and water safety for infants, kids, and adults of all skill levels. From first-time students to competitive swimmers, our experience allows us to tailor a program to meet the unique needs of each student.

The school started modestly in Steve Wallen's backyard pool in Folsom and has grown into one of the most popular and respected swim schools in our area. In 2008 we opened our facility in the El Dorado Hills Business Park 3 at 1230 Glenhaven Court to meet demands and offer year-round swim instruction to our students.

Private or small group swim lessons provide the opportunity for one-on-one interaction with highly trained, adult swim instructors, so each student receives personal attention and maximum benefit.

Our swim instructors are personally trained and supervised by Steve Wallen and his son Kaleb to meet their demanding standards while employing one of the most popular and respected swim instruction models in the country.

Whatever your swim instruction needs, Steve Wallen Swim School is prepared to meet and exceed your expectations. Contact us today to arrange a tour of our facility or to make arrangements to enroll in Steve Wallen Swim School. You’ll be glad you did.
