About Us

Dolfin, the “Ivy League” of Swim Schools

Linda DeSanders, a native Dallasite, is the founder and a Master Instructor of both Dolfin Swim School and the Dallas Dolfins Swim Team. She has a cousin who tragically lost her baby due to a drowning in the bathtub. That life-changing event precipitated a LIFETIME commitment by Linda to insure a constant message of hope by saving lives through parent education, practicing daily swimmer safety skills and teaching Water Safety education in the community to preschools and for Mother’s Day Out programs. SAFETY FIRST in our mantra.

Dolfin Swim School is the magical home of thousands of little and big “dolfins”. We lovingly and patiently take the fearful untrained “dolfins” and transform them into confident, efficient, and powerful swimmers for life with our innovative and proven Dolfin curriculum.

Every swimmer is a Champion!
Just add water and watch them SHINE!
