Describe your business. Did you find it, or did it find you?

For more than 30 years, Steve Wallen Swim School, Inc., has provided swim instruction to swimmers of all ages and abilities. The school began modestly in Steve Wallen’s backyard pool and has since grown into one of the most respected and popular swim schools in the area. From infancy through adulthood, our experience allows us to tailor a program to meet the specific needs of each individual.

Why is your staff the best in the business?

We have a staff of highly trained and skilled instructors that are personally trained and supervised by Steve and his son, Kaleb, to meet their demanding standards, while employing one of the most successful swim instruction models in the country. The school is fully licensed and insured and maintains membership in the United States Swim School Association. Come see what sets SWSS apart from the competition.

Where do you go when the going gets tough?

When the going gets tough we enjoy spending family time with all of our dogs at our house in Tahoe.

What’s your biggest job perk?

I love being at my swim school and interacting with customers on a daily basis. If you’ve talked to anyone that’s been to SWSS, they will tell you how involved my son and I are with our business. I think it’s very important to be personally involved with your business, in order to offer the best service.   

And finally, customer service is…?

Everything! At Steve Wallen Swim School, Inc., we are willing to do everything we can to provide all the skills and quality instruction to each and every one of our students. Whatever your swim instruction needs, Steve Wallen Swim School, Inc., is prepared to meet and exceed your expectations.
