Our Mission for Success.

We believe that childhood isn’t meant to be spent sitting still.

At AKIM, kids are our thing, happiness knows no seasons, and laughter reigns 12 months of the year. Whether it’s gymnastics, dance, swimming, NinjaZone, preschool or camp, our programs are designed for your child to have fun, make friends and learn new skills. Since 1997, The America’s Kids Way has created proud and impactful moments for families in the Fresno and Clovis areas. We invite you to see why over 37,000 families have chosen AKIM, because kids know, this is truly where the fun stuff happens!

1997

In the heart of Central California, our small swim program began as a humble gathering of one coach and a few determined kids splashing in a community pool. Year after year, we grew in numbers and reputation. It wasn’t long before we became known as the local leader for swim lesson excellence.

2008

As we grew, so did our footprint. Our commitment to the community of providing the highest caliber, most professional and proven programs has sent us down the road we’ve traveled today, and we’ve never looked back. The community has trusted us to deliver top notch and respected programs in swimming, gymnastics, dance, ninja, preschool, summer camps and music education.

Today!

Today!

We have currently expanded to ten facilities, each designed to foster a fun and encouraging environment. We serve thousands of families each week, and are home to the most respected and professional children’s sports programming in the Central Valley. Our programs are nationally recognized on all levels and we proudly provide over 25 full time career level management positions.
