Learn-to-swim Lessons Starting September 2025

The Paperny Family JCC would like to share that starting in September 2025, True Blue Swim School will no longer be operating out of the Steven Blitz Aquatics Centre. We are grateful for our partnership with True Blue and wish them continued success in their growth.

Beginning in Fall 2025, the JCC is thrilled to be expanding aquatics programming at the Steven Blitz Aquatics Centre, including the return of our in-house Swim for Life lessons. Our aquatics and customer service teams are dedicated to creating a standout, community-focused experience that sets us apart among Calgary’s recreational facilities.

With the return of JCC swim lessons, we’ll offer expanded open swim times, more opportunities for day camps and daycare participants, and affordable, high-quality programming for everyone.

Stay tuned for details in early 2025 on our new swim lesson model and registration process. Our valued members will continue to enjoy discounted rates, priority registration, and access to waitlists.

Get ready to make a splash with us at the JCC—we can’t wait to see you in the pool!
