Summer is for Swimming – Is Your Child Ready?
Summer is right around the corner and we all know what that means- vacations, picnics, and, of course, the pool. As a parent, pool time can be some of the most fun of the season. But it can also be extremely stressful if your kids don’t know how to swim. Swimming is a skill that can literally save your child’s life and swimming lessons have been proven to be the most effective way to reduce the chances of drowning.
As a mom who has invested in over 10 years of swimming lessons for my kids, I was surprised at how few options there were in our area for parents who wanted to enroll their child in a quality, affordable swim program. That’s why I decided to open British Swim School North Atlanta. I knew first-hand that there had to be a better way!
The first thing you will notice about our program is that we don’t own our own pools and facilities. Building and maintaining pools is super expensive and time consuming. By partnering with companies like Fitness:1440 and Gold’s Gym to use their facilities, we are able to focus 100% of our resources on providing quality swim lessons for our students.
We have programs for infants as young as 3 months old all the way up to adults. Many parents don’t realize that infants can be taught to roll over, float on their backs and cry out for help until someone is able to reach them. In fact, it is this principle that applies to all our classes regardless of age- first learn how to float, then learn how to swim.
Once a child has mastered basic water survival skills, we move on to more traditional swim lessons. We always use gentle methods- your child will not be dunked under the water screaming and crying- and our instructors are supportive and enthusiastic. And did we mention that our classes are fun? Our kids enjoy their classes so much they don’t even realize that they learning an important life skill.
