Your child will learn to hold their breath, put their face in the water, and swim both to the steps and wall of the pool. The final stage is learning what to do if they fall into a body of water; they learn to turn back to where they fell in, kick their feet, reach for the edge or steps, and climb out.

We have been successful because we teach with tender loving care and great patience; we are consistent and persistent, we build their skills on a gradual basis in the 5 days so the child becomes comfortable in the water.

We will begin instruction as early as ten months of age, although it is never too late to start. As soon as a child can crawl, they need to know how to swim. Statistics reveal that children under the age of 3 do drown and need to develop skills to increase their chances of survival should an incident occur. We teach children of all ages about water safety and provide swim programs designed for adults.
