What is the most valuable lesson swimming has taught you? Lay on your face and do this (shows us how to do freestyle with her arms)!
Parent thoughts: We started Skylar in swim lessons when she really began walking. We had plans for a summer vacation and were worried
about how she would do around the water. We wanted to equip her with the skills she would need in the event of an accidental fall into the pool. Her first lesson at British Swim School was, of course, a little scary for her, but she quickly fell in love with the instructors and soon learned to love swim class! 2 years later and our little baby is excelling and loving every minute of swimming, she looks forward to Mondays when she gets to swim with her favorite instructor, Mr. Jeremy! We are so happy that we chose BSS; we feel that we have equipped her with a life-long skill, respect, and love of the water. — Sara and Steve Hazen.
