Here's what parents are saying...

“I really like the independent swim, so the parents aren’t in the water. I think that (my daughter) gets more strength out of being in the water with the teacher. The pool is warm, the teachers are always great to the kids, I love that it’s actually a pretty big pool, and that there’s teams and levels…they get higher and higher and I like that.”

-Kia B

“It’s a great activity for (my son), he looks forward to it. It’s definitely priceless, watching him grow, and him seeing that reward of accomplishing even the little steps…it’s pretty amazing.”

-Terrance M
