My 3 kids go to Emler Westlake, and even though it’s quite the trek for us to get there it’s been well worth it as all of them have become more strong confident swimmers. Highly recommend Emler to my friends and family!

We love Emler so much!! The teachers are incredibly patient, creative, fun and in tune with all the big emotions of our little guy 🥹 and most importantly, he’s learning a life saving skill that will bring him so much joy!

Best swim classes EVER!! Emler is downright incredible. All the instructors are fantastic, we’ve worked with many of them. Big shout out to Ben and Alexis specifically. I’ve seen my 4-year old son develop his skills so well. I couldn’t be happier and my son loves it here too. The whole staff is genuinely kind and caring. They make it easy to schedule classes, and I also appreciate their flexibility with “make up” classes if we can’t attend our normal session. We’ll continue to be big fans of Emler for years to come!

We’ve had such a great experience at Emler Swim School of Austin-Westlake! My daughter Mollie started classes here in February at Level 4, and in just a few months she’s already moving up to Level 6. The coaches are patient, encouraging, and make lessons fun while still pushing the kids to improve. We’ve seen such a boost in her skills and confidence — couldn’t recommend them more!

I’ve been a nanny for 15 years and have had such wonderful experiences bringing the children I nanny to Emler. The staff is so welcoming and committed to creating a fun and safe environment that fosters a love of swimming. I’ve also loved seeing some of the same staff members year after year which is a testament to the positive culture of the place. Some of the children I have brought to swim class were initially unsure, but it was so wonderful to see them increase their comfort level and skills over time. A special shoutout to Lauren, Brittany and Elle who have taught the different kiddos I nannied for!
