Swim With Gills Instructors teach from a Nationally-based Curriculum and are American Red Cross Certified in CPR/First Aid and Safety and most are Lifeguard Certified.

Our philosophy of teaching is simple. We do not 'force' children to learn. Our Trained Instructors guide your child through skill and water safety by creating a trusting and caring relationship. Through fun and interactive 'play,' we maximize your child's comfort zone. At times, parents are in the water, cheering from the side of the pool or watching from a window. Each lesson is geared towards your child. Parents should remember that each child learns differently. Our "Whatever Works" philosophy enables instructors to teach to a child’s individual needs to build strength and skills. We teach babies from 6 months old to adults - each needing different lesson approaches and plans. Following the lessons, you’ll be given a variety of ways to practice and promote learning between classes. Water Safety Lessons for children, adults and care takers are always included in every lesson!
