Introduction

We love seeing children, youth, and adults improve their skills to swim safer, faster, and more confidently. We enjoy watching swimmers overcome small successes as well as big ones. There is nothing like a child floating on their back for the first time and the grin on their face from ear-to-ear with sense of accomplishment and excitement. Or an athlete who "feels" the water differently and because of it swims a faster 100 pace time or drops 2-3 minutes off their 1000 time. Every step is a success!

We’ve been doing lessons with the swim academy for just a couple months and it has been amazing to see how much progress our kids have made. We have a 2 and 5 year old and the instructors were so great with them. Our 2 year old has boundless energy and I was very impressed with how they kept him focused. They have learned so much and I’m feeling so much relief about having them near the water on our upcoming trip. Highly recommend!

I have been so happy with our time at The Swim Academy. My son is a very anxious swimmer and both Monica and Jamie have been so patient with him. They understand how to teach children like him and have helped him at the pace that he has needed. Jamie also was so helpful in helping us find a swimming lesson time that would work with my busy schedule. I would happily recommend this company to anyone.

We tried our daughter in multiple group swim lessons for 2 years and she barely made any progress. I read great reviews about the swim academy online so I decided to give it a try. I signed my daughter up for private lessons with Keith and it was amazing to watch how quickly she progressed. She has a hard time staying focused and Keith quickly honed in on that and tailored her lessons to help keep her attention and focus on swimming. He made it really fun and I felt like he utilized every minute of the lesson (didn't waste any of the time). At one point she got really nervous and regressed so Keith revised his lesson plan to help her overcome her hurdle and get back on track. We now have our second daughter in swim lessons with Jaime at the swim academy and have had a similar great experience. We would definitely recommend them!

I am a 29 year old male who is training for a half Iron Man. When I first started working with Jamie in November, I could not swim 50 meters without having to take a break. Now, three months later, I am able to swim 150 meter intervals for more than 1000 m distances. Jamie has been an excellent instructor. She is extremely knowledgeable and her experience and success speaks for itself. I love working with her and would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a swimming coach. I recommended Jamie to my sister-in-law, and she now sings the same praises.

We have loved taking our daughter to The Swim Academy! Every teacher we've had has been awesome. Our daughter was scared of the water and she is making great progress. She is floating and putting her face in and swimming out to the teacher! The teachers are good at giving suggestions and ideas for things we can work on at home and at a pool. Practicing what they suggest in-between lessons has helped a lot! The office staff are super busy but always get back to us. We'll stay for a long while! Thanks!!
