In the 1960’s a family of professional marathon swimmers, the Park family, recognized a gap in the delivery of swimming lessons specifically in relation to young children. Traditional lessons offered a play program for children under the age of 6 years without teaching young children basic survival skills in the water. As parents themselves, the Park’s recognized that physical barriers to water and adult supervision are not always enough to keep children safe. Fear of drowning was a reality given they were all travelling with young families to open water swimming venues around the world.

These lessons are designated for children 2 years of age to 5 years old who can sit or stand at the shallow end steps.
Classes may contain new beginners as well as children swimming a width of the pool. Because each child learns differently and at a different pace there will be a variety of swim abilities within the group. Each child is taught to their individual needs building on the skills learned from the previous class. The focus of these classes is teaching the child self-survival swimming skills and instilling confidence in the water.

I personally have been teaching swimming for over 45 years. In 2018 I retired from law enforcement after 30 years of service to devote my time to swimming. I have modified my methods and techniques to create my own individualized style of teaching. My passion for teaching is exhibited daily during each swim lesson and in the pride I take in providing young children with the tools to save themselves should they find themselves in the water alone. Swimming is an essential life skill. It is a fundamental activity in our Canadian summers and part of a healthy active lifestyle. I strongly believe that every child should learn to swim.
Classes are limited to a maximum of 4 children per class. Children are registered in sets of 6 classes. The classes are 30 minutes long.
