Who We Are

“Worden Aquatics ONLY teaches private swim lessons because we cater our lessons to the individual person. Everyone's learning style is different, so we teach everyone differently with the same results.”

— Lauren Worden, Founder & Managing Partner

About Us

Worden Aquatics, LLC is a leading aquatics programs company specializing in personalized, one-on-one swim lessons and custom aquatic programs for private neighborhoods. Our services include tailored swim lessons and non-competitive swim teams designed to meet the unique needs of our clients.

Unlike traditional swim schools, we are a 100% service-based business with no physical facility of our own. Instead, we partner with commercial and neighborhood pools across the greater Nashville area. This allows us to offer convenient, flexible swim lessons and aquatic programs to a wider audience. Whether it's in a neighborhood pool or a backyard in Middle Tennessee, we bring the expertise of "personal trainers" in swim instruction right to your location.

By leasing lane space from third-party pools, we maximize our reach and provide top-notch aquatic services throughout the metro Nashville area and beyond. Let Worden Aquatics bring the swim lessons to you, wherever you are in Middle Tennessee.

Our Story

We are renowned for our high-quality swim instruction, exceptional coaches, and top-tier customer service.
