One of the biggest myths around swim lessons is that only a professional can teach your child how to swim. Just like parents have come to depend on the Public (or Catholic) school system to educate their children in academics, parents have come to depend on our city pools to teach their child to swim.
Do you have a kid that is smart as a whip and just won’t take you’re word for things?
You say, “Go ahead, put your face in the water. It’ll be fine!” and he/she looks at you skeptically and responds, “NO, thanks!”
Well, that pretty much describes Griffin, our super bright and imaginative swimmer of the session!
Danika & Emily Simmons are The Aqua Life’s first twin Swimmers of the Session! These six year old fraternal twins absolutely adore the water! Unfortunately, like many fearless kids these two were prone to jumping in the water with or without supervision and that is why their mom, Xioli trusted us to teach her girls how to swim.
Irina is The Aqua Life’s first Swimmer of the Month! She is a fantastic 9 year old who decided that this year was going to be the year she learned how to swim!
The Aqua Life sets out to create everything I thought a classroom should be through a learning experience that nurtures trust, breakthroughs, and joy.
