Dear Judy,

We found out about your lessons from our neighbor who has a 2-year old son named Adam. I was asking if anyone had ever taken swim lessons in the area. I was asked back, “Do you want your kids to play in the water or do you really want them to learn how to swim?” “SWIM OF COURSE!!!!” “Well then, you need to see Judy!” She told me Adam was doing swim-float-swim. I had to see this for myself and visited Adam during a Fun Friday. I couldn’t believe my eyes. I had never seen such a young child swim so well.

Then I thought about my kids. Alex, 4-years old, didn’t even want to get his eyes wet in the shower and Will, 2-years old, would start screaming at the sight of a swimming pool. I decided to enroll them in Infant Aquatics and the results were amazing. In the first week, they were both swimming under water. I couldn’t believe it. And while both boys continued to improve at each lesson, there was just one problem; Will was screaming his lungs out every day. I think he earned a black belt in screaming. The funny thing was every morning Will couldn’t wait to go swimming. For 5 weeks, Will screamed!!!!! You assured me that this was only a temporary phase, and suggested we visit another pool over the weekend. So before the sixth week, my husband and I took the kids to the rec center to go swimming as a family. After about 45 minutes of screaming a light bulb went on in Will’s head and he realized, “Hey, this swimming thing is a lot of fun!” He could not wait to see you the next day; he jumped right into your arms and swam like a fish. It was unbelievable! I can’t rave enough about your program. Six weeks ago, my kids would not even go near the water, now swimming is our most favorite family activity. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!!!
