Daniel Island, South Carolina's Premier Swim Academy

Offering a conducive learning environment for swimmers of all skill levels within a small group setting, supported by elite coaching expertise.

Meet your Head Coach Avery Adams

Coach Avery made the move to the low country seven years ago after a highly successful coaching tenure spanning 11 years in Kentucky. Drawing on his collegiate experience with the University of Kentucky, where he served as the Head Coach of Kentucky Aquatics, Lakeside Seahawks, and the Puerto Rican National Team Coach, Coach Avery has been associated with several high-level programs. During his seven-year tenure in the low country, he has cultivated over 30 collegiate swimmers, secured numerous State Titles, State Records, National Level Meet Qualifiers, and achieved the distinction of being a Two-Time National Select Camp Coach, among other accolades.

Embarking on a new venture, Coach Avery is introducing a professional coaching program that emphasizes learning new skills in a relaxed environment, accommodating those with additional time commitments, without sacrificing quality coaching.

The Elevate Academy is designed to enable swimmers of all ability levels to succeed. For those ready to delve into competitive swimming, the opportunity to participate in one-day swim meets within the AAU Swimming Organization is available.

Coach Avery’s expertise in physiology and long-term athletic development positions this program as the most esteemed swim academy in the Charleston area.

If your family is seeking an opportunity to elevate their swimming prowess, enhance proficiency in all four strokes, and improve their competitive skills, the Elevate Academy is the answer. 

Under Coach Avery’s attentive guidance, your family and swimmer will have the chance to grow together and become part of the fastest-growing community in the low country.
