About Us

For over 25 years, Dafna’s Swim Centre has been functioning as one of Toronto’s highly acclaimed swimming facilities. Dafna Popper grew up in an environment that promoted and encouraged swimming as a lifestyle. At a young age, she had already learnt the necessary skills and began competing at her favorite sport. Subsequent to arriving in Canada, Dafna had envisioned her future. She knew that her purpose was to develop a swim program that instilled key survival skills in the youth of Canada. With the support of her family and friends, she began her endeavor to becoming the best that she could be, doing what she loved. What started out as just another industrial unit, today, is a beautiful facility filled with light and laughter. Parents are encouraged to come, unwind, and watch as their children are taught key survival techniques and how to swim.

A large and bright pool area with a spacious family change room is appealing for parents and their children. Our red-cross swim program is a program which has been specifically modified over the years in order to assure an enjoyable teaching environment for students.
