Community Swim and Fitness

Our mission is to provide engaging and developmentally appropriate swim instruction that builds confidence, strengthens foundational skills, and fosters a lifelong comfort in the water.

The Bongsoon Zubay Athletic Center welcomes members of our community for recreational use during early mornings, evenings, and weekends (September–July). We offer a range of aquatic programs for children and adults, including private swim lessons, group classes, morning and evening lap swim, and weekend family swim sessions.

Please note that our pool is a recreational pool and does not include spectator space on the deck. Accommodations are available for families who need additional support for their children.

The Athletic Center is located at 762 President Street, between 6th and 7th Avenues. The Athletic Center staff can be reached at swim@berkeleycarroll.org or 718.534.6624.
