Mission Statement from the instructor:

We want to give every child the opportunity to receive personalized, safe, and supportive swim lessons for children four and up. We use science backed methods for faster progress and retention, resulting in confident children, and lifelong swimming skills. - Ciara Pekarek

Is your child water safe?

Drowning is the leading cause of unintentional injury death for ages 1-4; second leading for ages 5-14. 

  • From 2019-2022, drowning fatalities in this age group increased by a staggering 28%.

  • For every fatal drowning, there are approximately two non-fatal drownings. These non-fatal incidents, averaging 22 per day, can result in severe and permanent brain damage, learning disabilities, and other lifelong health consequences.

If you're not sure, don't wait. Private instruction is the fastest way to turn 'not sure' into 'water confident'.

Why Choose Private Lessons?

Unlike traditional group lessons where an instructor’s attention is divided between 4-6 children, my 1-on-1 private lessons focus entirely on your child’s unique needs, fears, and learning style.

Rapid Progress: Students master crucial safety skills and gain confidence up to 3x faster than in group settings.

Personalized Pace: We move as fast as your child is ready—no waiting for other kids to catch up or feeling rushed.

Maximum Safety: With my eyes on your child 100% of the time, we focus on real-world drowning prevention skills from the very first splash.

Reduced Anxiety: A quiet, 1-on-1 environment helps nervous swimmers feel safe and build trust quickly.
