YOUTH INSTRUCTION

Give your child the opportunity to learn to love the water, while developing valuable water safety skills! Serving little swimmers from ages 6 months and older, we offer child-paced instruction for new, experienced, or special needs youth. We offer instruction for: Parent/tot classes, learn to swim, swim improvement, competitive, and four-stroke goals.

Many children struggle to learn much beyond the basics (if that) in large group classes conducted in big, cold pools with abundant sources of distraction. In our lessons, there is no sitting by the side of the pool shivering while you wait your turn to churn up the water with your arms and legs.

At the TISS, we build smiles, confidence, and a healthy relationship with the water through sequenced, age-appropriate steps. We conduct mostly private and small group instruction in a shallow, warm water pool with plenty of one-on-one time.
We strive to assist in creating…
-    an ideal environment for learning with warm water and minimal opportunity for distractions
-    happy swimmers by helping infants and toddlers to acclimate to the water and rediscover instinctive breath-holding techniques
-    safe swimmers by teaching tots to return to the wall and climb out beginning at 2 years…
-    comfortable swimmers by teaching balance and buoyancy beginning at age 3…
-    efficient swimmers by teaching alignment and fluid, coordinated movements beginning at 4 or 5
-    confident swimmers, ready for the swim team from ages 5 and older
All swimmers are unique, and we routinely serve swimmers of all ages who did not thrive in previous lessons, giving them a new opportunity to discover their potential.

We offer lessons in the privacy of our larger, cooler, deeper outdoor pool in the summer months as well, for those looking to get experience swimming in the “big” pool. For more information on scheduling and prices for youth instruction, call 914-466-5956.
