Dear
Potential Clients of Happy Swimmers,
Since we're new to
each other, I'd like to share a little about our company's swim instruction background
and teaching style. We've been in business for 18 years, teaching children
in the San Fernando Valley, Westside of LA, Orange County, San Diego,
San Jose, and Phoenix how to swim. Our first priority is to teach children
how to survive falls into the water. Once this is mastered, swim strokes
are emphasized, but not before a high degree of water safety is attained.
Our philosophy of
teaching is simple. We teach water safety by building a loving,
trusting relationship with the children. We don't teach "lessons."
We don't force learning. Our instructors are keenly aware of each child's
comfort zone. Your child will be proud to show you what they learn after
each visit, and we give you ways to practice and promote even greater
learning in-between the lessons.
We
keep a staff of 12 highly trained and experienced swim
instructors. Most have 5-10 years lesson teaching to their credit,
and have child development backgrounds. Because we believe in the importance
of the relationship between teacher and student, we won't substitute your
teacher unless something unforeseen happens. Your instructor will have
a professional swim instruction résumé to show you on your
first meeting, and feel free to ask them ANY questions you'd like before
lessons begin.
We're members of the
United States Swim School Association, a national body of integrity-based
professional swim schools, and we're fully insured. Don't settle for less!
Space books quickly for summer lessons, and instructors' schedules are
filled on a first-come-first-served basis, so for best availability of
times and instructors, please plan to start lessons as soon in the season
as you can.
We look forward
to serving you with kindness, and beautiful results.
