Finding the best swim school to fit your family’s needs takes careful research and consideration. It’s important to find a place that is family friendly, flexible, and convenient; but most importantly, the school needs to provide quality lessons that help your child safely learn how to swim. That’s why at Aqua-Tots, we have designed our program and facility with you in mind! To us, it’s essential that your experience at Aqua-Tots is exceptional – Every Lesson, Every Time.

We’ve listed 4 reasons why everyone should learn how to swim.

1. Safety
Safety is the number one reason everyone should learn to swim. On average, two children under the age of 15 die each day in the US from unintentional drowning. Swimming is a basic life skill. By starting lessons at a young age and sticking with it, the skills will be imprinted, much like riding a bike. At Aqua-Tots we start teaching babies as young as 4 months old to be safe in and around water.

2. Exercise
Swimming is a full-body workout! Using most muscle groups in one activity. It’s low-impact, easy on joints, and has a much lower risk of injury compared to other sports.

3. It’s for everyone
Whether you’re 4 or 74, small or large, or somewhere in between, swimming can be enjoyed by nearly all ages, abilities, and sizes. Even children with special needs can learn safety and swimming skills. Our SNAP swimming program is designed to provide beneficial, motivating, and enjoyable experiences with children of all ages with special needs.

4. Lifelong Activity
Do you know anyone who avoids going to the pool with friends or canoeing or kayaking because they’re afraid of water? Wouldn’t it be so much more fun to be able to confidently jump in the water and enjoy life? There are so many pastimes and sports that involve water. Older people who swim regularly age better and enjoy a higher quality of life. It’s a low to no-cost activity that can be pursued through the golden years.

For these four reasons and more, Aqua-Tots believes in, and teaches “Lessons for Life”. If you’d like to give your child a head-start on all the benefits of swimming, enroll today!
