About Us
Why Water Safety?
Welcome to Mountain Wave Swimming! We are bringing a unique method of swim instruction to Southeastern Idaho because we believe that it is never too early to start preparing for safe, fun interactions with water. Babies, from the moment they are born, love the feeling of being held in warm water and most adults continue to find time in the pool relaxing. Water has the ability to melt away stress, heal injuries, and provide physical exercise at any age. Our approach is one that puts safety first every step of the way. We teach every swimmer that comes through our program how to float independently and get to safety before moving on to acclimation, strokes, and diving.
“We want to give kids the chance to practice getting through difficult situations.”

Meet Our Instructors
Emilee
Co-founder and Head Instructor
Emilee is our head instructor and co-founder at Mountain Wave Swimming. She has spent the past 10 years teaching stroke technique and water safety skills to children and adults ranging in age from 2 months to 60 years old, and particularly loves working with infants and kids with special needs. As a child and young adult she competed on various competitive swim teams, including the Rigby HS (Rigby, ID) and Kelly Walsh HS (Casper, WY) varsity swim teams.
Emilee’s next session for new students will be in May
Allyson
Co-founder
Allyson is our cofounder at Mountain Wave Swim School. She was first introduced to Water Safety Lessons 4 years ago when she took her, then, 2-year old little boy to them. While he loved the water, he had snuck away many times to try and jump in alone. She was amazed at the progress he made and how quickly he became independent in the water and quickly decided she wanted to be trained in Water Safety as well! She has taught swim lessons and stroke technique for over 10 years and is excited to be back in Idaho helping families find safety and confidence!

What People Are Saying
“My daughter is difficult when it comes to water, but the instructor at mountain wave swimming is AMAZING and works so well with her. They use every minute of her lesson to teach her and help her. They don’t waste any time on crying, they just teach. My daughter has improved SO much in just 5 lessons. So impressed. Highly recommend.”
“We are so glad Mountain Wave Swimming opened in Rexburg! Their prices are affordable and the private, 20 minute lessons are perfect for little ones. All the instructors are warm and welcoming and they are so very patient with hesitant kiddos!”
“We love mountain wave swimming! Emilee is so patient and really tried to help figure out the best way to help each of my girls learn of according to their personality. She earns the kids trust and makes it fun. It was fun to watch my 4 year old learn that she can do hard things and watch her confidence grow!”
