Adventure Swim

Tot program. Older children gain confidence and self-esteem through the process of learning to swim in such an enjoyable manner. Eighty percent of Adults, who have never had their head under water before, will swim across the pool (25') by the third lesson. Good swimmers appreciate the way they improve their skills and learn why, as well as, how to perform the more complex strokes and skills. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR RESULTS--- THIS IS THE ONLY SWIM SCHOOL TO CONSIDER. Indoor Pool! Kids learn swimming better when they're comfortable. Walls and roof are insulated to keep out wind, rain and snow. The pool is 25'x50', has two diving boards, and a depth from 3' to 11'.

Mr. Ed continually observes each student and modifies the skills to best fit the student's needs. Skills are designed and conducted for students to get a good workout and enough rest for maximum performance. Learning swimming is fast! Drills and activities designed by Mr. Ed specifically for the child's age and skill level, combined with special teaching equipment, make learning fun, easy and fast. With proper preparation and support from parents, the children are challenged to be all they can become. A graduated University of Tennessee All-American Swimmer stated, "I have never seen children learn to swim so well, so fast". Children feel proud of their accomplishments and are usually excited about coming to class. Ed's swim classes are fun! Ed plays games and activities designed with achieving swimming confidence and skills. We start with the "Umbrella Game" while the child is sitting on the side of the pool. We then progress to other fun activities -- all designed exclusively by Mr. Ed -- to give the child confidence and to teach skills. We even have a radio playing under water and pictures on the ceiling! Amazed with his son's progress, a father mused, "This is neat!! My son plays in the water and learns to swim!"
