We have been working with Anne for over 4 years now. My kids are very skillful swimmers because of Anne’s patience, expertise and fun energy. My kids love their lessons with Anne. Even though they have been fully swimming for some time now, they continue to learn new skills and gain strength in their abilities with Anne’s very knowledgeable direction.

Swimverse is amazing! They customize swim lessons to meet a swimmers level. It is clear they know swimming techniques and ensure participants learn proper technique. They are responsive to inquiries and make recommendations. I highly recommend SwimVerse!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Anne and her SwimVerse team. Anne has been teaching my two girls (now five and two) for two summers now and their progress has been great. Anne is incredible patient and caring and customizes her approach to each child. My older daughter will often recite phrases or skills that Anne has taught her and my younger daughter jumps in right to Anne at the start of every lesson. In addition to teaching swim, she also does an incredible job reinforcing water safety. I would highly recommend her and her team to anyone looking to build this life skill.

Our kids have been taking swim lessons from teacher Anne/SwimVerse since 2018 and they have become great little swimmers over the years. She teaches the kids to love the water and adjusts her lessons to support their individual skill set. We especially loved her lesson on water safety and how to safely help someone in distress.

Thank you, Michelle. It's been great to swim with your children for so many years and to see them grow into wonderful human beings and swimmers! Anne

FAQs

  • What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

    SwimVerse 2023 rates are based on $150/hour with the following recommended lesson duration: 30 minutes ($75/lesson) ages 3-8 for beginner level 45 minutes ($112/lesson) ages 8-15 for intermediate level 1 hour ($150/lesson) ages 10-99 intermediate/advanced level

  • What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

    The first lesson is always an evaluative session of basic skills and an opportunity for instructor and client to get to know each other. Before new clients are added to our calendar, they are informed there is a 1 hour minimum lesson session time per pool location. Lessons are offered in packets of 5, 10, 15, and 20 For optimum learning conditions, we ask pools be heated to a minimum of 80 degrees, no others are swimming while lessons are in progress, and hot tub/spa use be reserved until after lessons are completed.

  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

    Anne Gatlin, founder/owner of SwimVerse has been in aquatics for 55+ years as a competitor, instructor, and coach. The SwimVerse method of instruction is based on years of experience, a college degree in Kinesiology/Biomechanics, and the belief children are wonderful human beings . . . and everyone should enjoy the process and results of learning to swim! All SwimVerse Instructors are trained in the SwimVerse Method of instruction, certified in CPR/AED and First Aid, insured, and devoted to bringing enthusiasm and patience to the learning process.
