Water Wings Swim School celebrated the grand opening of its newest facility in Frisco on Sept. 26. The swim school, which now operates 18 locations across the United States, brings its proven model of small‑group instruction, swim meets and private lessons to families in the Dallas‑Fort Worth metroplex.
Family‑focused programming
Owner‑operator Ali Robaei, a parent herself, said the Frisco center was created to give local families a safe, supportive environment where children can learn essential water‑safety skills, build confidence and enjoy the water. “As a parent, so much of my life revolves around my children and helping them grow, whether that’s through school, sports or new experiences,” Robaei explained in the company press release. “Water Wings gives me an opportunity to bring that same mindset to families throughout the community by creating a place where children can develop important water safety skills, build confidence and have fun along the way.”
Qualified instructors and low class sizes
According to the press release, Water Wings classes average a four‑to‑one student‑to‑instructor ratio. All instructors hold certifications in water safety, first aid and CPR, ensuring that each lesson is conducted with professional oversight. The low‑ratio format allows coaches to give individualized attention, correct technique quickly and respond promptly to any safety concerns.
Year‑round offerings for all ages
The Frisco location provides a full schedule of programs, including:
- Small‑group swim lessons for children ages 6 months to 12 years
- Adult swim classes for beginners and those looking to refine technique
- Private lessons for families or individuals seeking focused instruction
- Seasonal swim meets that give participants a chance to test their skills in a friendly, competitive setting
Classes run throughout the year, giving families the flexibility to start lessons at any time rather than waiting for a seasonal window.
Economic impact and community ties
Water Wings’ expansion adds another small business to Frisco’s growing commercial landscape. The new facility creates several full‑time positions for certified instructors, front‑desk staff and support personnel, contributing to local employment. By emphasizing water safety education, the school also supports public‑health goals, helping reduce the risk of drowning incidents in the community.
Looking ahead
Robaei expressed optimism about the school’s role in the community. “We look forward to partnering with local schools, churches and youth organizations to promote safe swimming habits,” she said. The Frisco center plans to host community outreach events, such as free water‑safety workshops and family swim days, reinforcing the school’s commitment to family values and community well‑being.
With its focus on qualified instruction, low class sizes and a family‑centric approach, Water Wings Swim School aims to become a trusted resource for Frisco residents seeking quality swim education for children and adults alike.
