Most children will find themselves near the water at some point in their lives. Therefore, swimming is a life skill that no child should be without! Drowning is the second leading cause of unintentional death for children 1 to 14 years of age. Fortunately, children swimming lessons in Fort Lauderdale can help to reduce the risk of drowning by nearly 90%!
Survival-first swim lessons, such as those offered by British Swim School, are the #1 way to reduce drowning risks, but they also provide several other benefits, including fitness, social development, and education of a lifelong skill!
In addition to “traditional” swimming techniques, children swimming lessons at British Swim School of Metro Fort Lauderdale teach children lifesaving water safety skills to protect themselves from drowning or near-drowning incidents.
About Our Children Swimming Lessons in Fort Lauderdale
We take water safety seriously, but we also make learning fun, which we know helps to improve retention by reinforcing the skills taught during lessons in a fun and engaging way. Our classes are taught in convenient locations throughout Fort Lauderdale and incorporate songs, games, and other fun learning aids!
Following an initial meeting with a parent or caregiver, children are placed into classes based on their age and skill level, with clear goals outlined for each level. Our instructors work closely with each family to ensure progress is being made and children are advancing to subsequent levels!
Some of the skills we teach in our children swimming lessons include:
- Water acclimation
- Confidence and self-esteem to build independence in the water
- Beginner and advanced water survival techniques
- Beginner and advanced strokes on their backs and fronts
- Breathing coordination
- Starts and turns for each stroke
