Category: CHILD SWIM LESSONS FAQS

In the early stages of learning to swim, it is not uncommon for students to cry. If this happens, it’s best to let the instructors work their magic and have parents stay back or even “hide” (or watch from an area that your student cannot see you). Parent involvement not only undermines the instructors but will ultimately hinder the learning process. Trust our instructors to take care of your child – they are in good hands!
