Yes. Every lesson is one-on-one, short (10 minutes), and led by a certified Infant Aquatics® instructor. Lessons are designed around safety first, with proven methods and a structured, supportive environment.

It’s common, especially at the beginning. Crying is your child’s way of communicating in a new situation, not a sign of trauma. Most children adjust quickly, and by the end, parents are amazed at how much confidence replaces those initial tears.

Young children learn best in short, frequent bursts. Ten minutes, four days a week, keeps them engaged and safe while building muscle memory. This schedule produces faster, lasting results compared to weekly traditional lessons.

Traditional lessons often take months or years to build basic skills through play. Survival Swim equips children with real self-rescue skills in weeks. Instead of just splashing and songs, your child learns to float, breathe, and swim to safety—skills that can save a life.

Infants can begin as early as 6 months, once they can roll from front to back on land. Toddlers typically start around 18 months if they’ve been walking steadily for several months. Older children can start too—the program is tailored to their developmental stage.

Even if your child is comfortable in the water, they may not have self-rescue skills. Many children can “swim” a few feet but don’t know how to roll onto their back and float when tired. Survival Swim closes those gaps and builds real water safety.

After graduation, kids move into maintenance depending on location: group classes in California, seasonal tune-ups in Nevada, or refreshers in either state. Once your child has completed the six-week program, they never have to start over—just refresh and grow.

Yes. Many children begin fearful, but the structure, consistency, and nurturing environment help them gain confidence quickly. By graduation, kids who once clung to their parents are swimming and floating independently.

The six-week program is $750 (seven weekly installments) or $800 (four biweekly installments). Refreshers are $100 registration + $110 per week, length depending on the child. Families consistently say the peace of mind and safety skills are priceless.

Because this isn’t just about lessons—it’s a full experience. You’ll receive parent handbooks, weekly updates, preparation emails, celebrations at graduation, and ongoing support. Families often become friends, kids cheer for one another, and parents leave knowing their child is truly safer around water.
