Build Confidence
EmBe leads the Sioux Falls aquatics community with its expert instruction and training of the best aquatics instructors in the region. The EmBe pool has been a staple in the community since 1965. We offer tailored lessons and training to help swimmers meet their goals and learn life skills. From the first lesson to triathlon training, we teach our swimmers to feel safe and confident in their swimming ability.
