Our swim-float-swim sequence is the standard in water safety training that many have tried to replicate: because it works! Thousands of children have been saved by this technique plus every individual who has been trained by this method is safer in the water. SWIMkids USA swimming instructors equip their swim school students with an immediate method of survival in an emergency situation by teaching them to roll on their backs where they can breathe and rest for an indefinite amount of time. After a short rest period the child is then taught to roll back onto his/her stomach and continue to swim to the safety of the wall or steps.

The swimming lessons are a step-by-step plan of development wherein one skill is built upon another. The skills are practiced over and over so the child learns each skill to the automatic level. Upon graduation from each level, we award the student a medal in a mini-Olympic graduation ceremony in front of his parents and peers. At SWIMkids USA, we build self-esteem and confidence through repeated success. In addition to our children swimming classes, we also offer baby swim lessons and special needs swimming classes.
