Build Confidence and Self-Esteem with Our Swim Programs
EmBe has provided members of the Sioux Falls community and beyond with swimming lessons for nearly 90 years. The EmBe pool has been a staple in the community, providing entire generations with fond memories and meaningful experiences. Today, EmBe offers tailored lessons and training to help everyone succeed in their own swimming goals. From the first lesson to triathlon training, we teach our swimmers to feel safe and confident in their swimming ability.
In addition to swimming lessons, EmBe excels at transforming your love of the pool into a career. EmBe leads the Sioux Falls aquatics community with its expert instruction, guiding and training the best aquatics instructors in the region.

Olympics Swimming has been in the Olympic Games since 1896. The very first Olympic events were freestyle (crawl) or breaststroke. Backstroke was added in 1904. Women’s swimming became Olympic in 1912 at the Stockholm Games. Since then, it has been part of every edition of the Games. The men’s and women’s programs are almost identical, as they contain the same number of events, with only one difference: the freestyle distance is 800 meters for women and 1,500 meters for men.
