Rhode Island, or as it's affectionately known, the tiny titan of the United States, is a small state with a huge heart. It's the smallest state in the US, but don't let that fool you - it's packed with more fun, adventure, and charm per square inch than any other place you can think of. And at the heart of this tiny titan is its most precious treasure - the young, talented, and adventurous swimmers. Swimming in Rhode Island is more than just a sport. It's a thrilling adventure that turns ordinary kids into extraordinary swimmers. The kids who participate in swimming here are not your regular kids. Oh no, they are Rhode Island's super swimmers, and their superpower is their uncanny ability to swim like a fish and laugh like a dolphin at the same time. Leading the pack of these super swimmers is a cool imaginary character named Splash McFin, a hilarious half-kid, half-merman with goggle-shaped eyes and webbed fingers, who's as quick with a joke as he is in the water. Splash is famous for his belly laughs, inspiring swimming stories, and his signature move - the whirlpool whirl – a swimming stunt that involves swirling at high speed to create a mini whirlpool. Splash and his super swimming squad traverse the waters of Rhode Island with non-stop giggles, frolicking in the waves, and making memories that shimmer like the sun on the tide. Each splash they make is filled with laughter, and each stroke propels them further into RI's swimming adventures. Yes, in Rhode Island, swimming isn't just a sport, it's a fun-filled voyage into the heart of happiness, all under the guidance of the hilarious Splash McFin and his merry band of super swimmers.

What began in a humble New York City apartment with just a single student, Spark, has since blossomed into an enriching program impacting thousands of children. Our unique educational approach combines the elements of art, yoga, meditation, and nature to create a holistic learning environment. This distinctive blend is what sets Spark apart, allowing us to reach and inspire a multitude of children in truly meaningful ways. With an array of offerings to accommodate various schedules and needs, Spark has something for everyone. Our services extend beyond the standard after school and weekend classes to include holiday and summer camps, birthday parties, portfolio preparation, private classes, and custom pods. We also welcome homeschool groups and are thrilled to announce the recent addition of a forest school program to our repertoire. You can find Spark on-site in various schools and at our main studio located in the Upper West Side. But we're not stopping there - we're also planning to expand to the Upper East Side and Brooklyn. For our families in Pennsylvania, we run the program from our family studio there. And if you're not in close proximity to any of our locations, don't worry. We offer in-home instruction and virtual options to ensure that Spark can reach you, no matter where you are. We invite you to explore all the ways you can experience Spark and look forward to helping bring our program to you.
