Norcross Kids Benefit from Youth Swimming Lessons

There are almost countless reasons why kids in the Norcross, GA area should take youth swimming lessons. While most parents enroll their children in swimming classes to encourage water safety, learning how to swim has so much more to offer young children. That’s something the instructors at British Swim School North East Atlanta know firsthand. We’ve seen Norcross’s littlest swimmers get so much out of youth swimming lessons. Here are just six of the biggest things our students get out of their time in our classes.

6 Benefits to Youth Swimming Lessons

1. Youth Swimming Lessons Keep Norcross Kids Safer
   No age group is at bigger risk for drowning than children under the age of 5 years old. But that risk can be reduced significantly — by more than 85% — through water safety classes. Our youth swimming lessons for babies and toddlers offer concerned Norcross parents the perfect way to start water safety early. They’re also a great way to get kids ready for a lifetime of fun in the water.
2. Norcross Kids Get Physically Active
   Most kids get less physical activity than they should. Swimming is one of the best ways to fix that. Youth swimming lessons can help Norcross’s young swimmers build strength, improve coordination, and get a healthy dose of cardio. Best of all, swimming’s fun, so kids love going to the pool!
3. Swimming Can Improve Performance at School
   Swimming lessons can mean better grades in the classroom. Physical activity is known to increase test scores, and swimming classes help young learners build discipline that can help them in their studies. In fact, researchers have found that swimmers outperform their peers in multiple academic settings.
4. Team Activities Build Kids’ Social Skills
   Our youth swimming lessons for Norcross-area kids include a number of team-based games and activities. Kids have a blast during these games, but they also learn how to work together. Our students learn how to support one another, collaborate toward team goals, and play nice with others.
5. Youth Swimming Lessons Teach Independence
   Swimming doesn’t just help kids build teamwork and social skills, but also helps them become more independent. Our instructors help kids learn how to set and achieve personal goals in the pool— skills that will help them set and achieve other important goals.
6. Kids Have a Blast in Youth Swimming Classes
   As a parent, you’ll love our youth swimming lessons for all of the reasons we’ve listed above. But kids love our classes for the songs, games, activities, and fun they get to have in the water. Best of all, the swimming skills they learn will mean more fun outside of our classes, opening the door to more summertime fun at the pool or the beach.
