What is Survival Swim?

Survival swimming lessons teach your child the life-saving skills to survive an aquatic accident should they find themselves alone in the water. During these lessons, children are taught to surface, roll to their back to rest and get a breath, then roll back over to their stomachs to swim to the nearest exit point.

Why should my child take Survival Swim?

1. Your child may have a false sense of security in the water.

Often, younger children who haven’t had infant swim lessons are used to their puddle jumper, floatie, or life vest.

This builds a false sense of security around water, which can create dangerous situations when they don’t have that floating device—and still think they can swim.

By teaching proper survival swim technique, our program will give your child the ability to swim safely, and will teach you how to continue to grow your child’s swimming ability.

2. Survival swim is amazing to watch.

Infants, toddlers, and young children are transformed from being helpless in the water into confident, capable swimmers in weeks, not years.

The added benefit of increasing self-esteem and independence in children while bringing relief and confidence to parents, not just meeting their expectations but exceeding them, brings the staff of SwimKids of Georgia great satisfaction.

Our number one priority is teaching children to save their own lives.

3. Starting early makes a big difference.

The longer a child waits to learn to swim, the harder it will be to learn. Sometimes, as children grow older, they can become more nervous around water. This makes it more difficult to bridge mental gaps and be confident in learning to swim.

SwimKids offers survival swim as young as 12 months, or when your child can walk. Pre-walkers can take advantage of our Little Splashers program that develops your child’s cognitive skills and instills confidence in them as a swimmer.
