The Dolphin class is the final intermediate step before EVO's Advanced Stroke class. By the time children reach Dolphin, freestyle and backstroke are already in place. Now, breaststroke and butterfly join the mix, endurance climbs, and the four-stroke foundation that defines a real swimmer comes together.
Dolphin is the bridge class. Families who are eyeing competitive swimming, or just want their child to leave EVO with a complete set of skills, choose Dolphin. The class runs in EVO's indoor pools across Gilbert, Mesa, and the East Valley.
Most swim schools stop at freestyle and backstroke. Dolphin keeps going. Children leave with freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly, the full set used in every competitive meet.
Dolphin feeds directly into EVO's Advanced Stroke class and, for swimmers who want to race. Coaches teach with that next step in mind.
Among the few year-round indoor swimming pools in Mesa and Gilbert, EVO's facilities keep training consistent regardless of the season.
The Dolphin class is built for advanced swimmers ready for the final intermediate challenge. Children typically move into Dolphin after Porpoise, having already refined freestyle, side breathing, and backstroke. Dolphin completes the picture.
Freestyle and backstroke refinement. Sharpening technique for speed and efficiency.
Breaststroke and butterfly. Introducing and practicing the final two competitive strokes.
Endurance and strength. Building the stamina needed for longer swims and stronger performance.
Sessions run 30 minutes in EVO's warm indoor pool, one class per week.

Babies can begin the Starfish class as early as 3 months old. At this stage, infant swimming lessons focus on water comfort and breath control rather than strokes, making early enrollment safe and age-appropriate.
Yes. EVO's Starfish class is a parent-tot swim class where a parent or caregiver joins the baby in the water for every session. The class covers water acclimation, basic skills, and parent-child bonding.
Both year-round locations in Gilbert and Mesa feature indoor, climate-controlled pools. Water temperature stays warm and consistent regardless of the season.
Bring a swim diaper, a towel, and a change of clothes for you and your baby. No goggles or special gear are needed for the Starfish level.
The Starfish class has a 12:1 student-to-coach ratio. Because a parent or caregiver is in the water with each baby, your little one has both professional guidance and your support at all times.
Once your child is ready, the next step is the Pufferfish class, another parent-tot level with an 8:1 ratio for ages 16 to 24 months. From there, swimmers move into EVO's entry-level classes like Otter and Seal.
