WHAT WE TEACH

At First Swim School we believe swimming is a life saving skill that needed to be learned yesterday. Therefore, our swim method takes a no nonsense approach to teaching. This is the quickest and most effective way to get your swimmer safe and happy in the pool. All of our students truly do swim on their first lesson. We do not waste time sitting on the steps, talking about the water, or blowing bubbles. Each student is holding their breath underwater and kicking from the very beginning. We teach each swimmer to get to a safe place in the pool, whether that be an instructor, step, edge, or a float. We take pride in customizing each lesson for each individual swimmer's needs and skill level. The goal of our lessons is to create a safe, confident, and happy swimmer.

Swim-Float-Swim teaches toddlers and children  a sequence of rotation between floating and swimming, until the child can reach a safety point. Our swimmers will roll to float in order to keep the swimmer horizontal in the water.

Kids walk around all day and when they get in the pool, they want to do the same. However, it is difficult for swimmers to get anywhere in the pool while vertical. We focus on keeping our swimmers horizontal in the water in order to quickly propel themselves to safety.

Mrs. Nicole is very passionate about helping each swimmer gain the confidence they need to become safe in the water. As a mother of four, she knows the importance of providing encouragement to each swimmer and instruction to the parents.

Ms. Lyric loves working with children. She treats each child with love and you will always see her with a smile on her face. With six siblings of her own, she knows how to relate to the swimmers and build trust. She is currently working toward her degree in Kinesiology.

Ms. Debbie enjoys spending her days helping children. She works as a substitute teacher during the school year and is working toward her degree in Education. She strives to make each child feel loved and grow their confidence in their swimming abilities.
