Spread the Word

There is still room is session three and four! For session three I have spots available in level 1 and 3. It will begin July 23rd. Session four has spots available at all levels, beginning August 6th.


If you haven't found time to fit swim lessons in yet this summer now is your chance! If you've already enjoyed one session, take advantage of one last chance for your children to practice and improve before the summer is over. I would also appreciate anyone who would be willing to spread the work to friends, family and neighbors. Thanks for your help! 

Water Safety

I happen to follow this blog (which is normally much more light-hearted and fun) and today the post really hit home for me as a lifeguard and swim teacher. Her son nearly drown. It is a long post, but if you have time it is always a good reminder to understand the importance of watching your children in the pool and teaching them to swim. As a teacher, I do my best to give them all the skills they need, but no matter what your child's age or skill level please make sure to watch them so carefully in the water so this tragic story does not happen to you.

The Fun Cheap or Free Queen: The Gift Of Presence: 

Update

Well the first session is already over and the second is halfway there begun. I can't believe it! It is been going great so far! I hope you are all pleased about the progress your children have made. I sure am! I love seeing students finally begin to cross the bridge to independence. I know the progress will only continue throughout the summer. 

Please be sure to watch your children inside and outside the pool. Especially when I am focusing on one student I can't keep my eyes on the others. I have informed all classes about the severe drop off in the middle of the pool, but if your child is especially exploratory be sure to watch them so we don't have any accidents.  Additionally, I would appreciate your assistance in maintaining the Pech's and my own property. The Pech's are providing us with a beautiful setting for our lessons and I appreciate you cleaning up after your children and making sure they respect the property. 


I still have quite a bit of available space for the July and August sessions. If you would like your child to gain continued progress throughout the summer please contact me about doing another session. Remember it is only $25! I would also appreciate your help is spreading the word and recommending me to your family and friends.

Finally, I will be putting together an evaluation of your experience with swim lessons shortly and I would love your input about the good and the bad!

Thank you so much for your support and cooperation! As always, please contact me with any questions or concerns!

Session One

REMINDER:

Session One starts next Monday! I hope you are all excited because I sure am!

Level 4 will begin at 4:00, level 3 at 4:30, level 2 at 5:00 and level 1 at 5:30. The address is 4657 S. Crestfield Dr. Please park on the street. You will enter in the gate on the north side of the house. I will post a sign!

Don't forget:

• your $30.00 registration fee if not already paid.
• sunscreen! It will be the middle of the day and the temperatures should be warm. Don't let your children get sunburned on the first day!
• goggles, towel etc. I recommend goggles (for older students especially).

I can't wait to see you all there! It's going to be a great summer!

Coming Soon

Just a quick reminder, it's almost time for registration! Registration begins Monday.

I will be in Logan for the next two weeks on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. You may still register on those days but I will leave by 8:00 in the morning and will not be home until around 6:30 in the evening.  I will be up by at least 7:00 in the morning and some of my family will be home by 5:00 so you may come by between 7:00 and 8:00 in the morning and between 5:00 and 10:00 at night. I apologize for the inconvenience. I will be home almost all day on Tuesday, Thursday and the weekend so feel free to bring it any time then.

Also, registration is first come first serve, so if you would like to be in the same session as family and friends make sure you register together as I can not guarantee any spots without registration.

See you soon!

Prepare Your Children to Swim

I just saw this post on pinterest and I love it! After watching all kinds families come to the pool as a lifeguard and teaching children who are scared of the water I have seen how these tips can really help children to become comfortable in the water. Take a look to see what you can apply to your own families! Good luck!
