Whether you are a novice or advanced swimmer we are here to help. You are never too old to learn to swim.

We approach private adult swimming lessons with TLC. Baby Otter Swim School also specializes in teaching adults how to swim. Whether you have a fear of the water or just want to improve your swimming technique.  We have had many years of successful teaching with adults.  Most adults had a terrible fear of  the water and were able to overcome those fears.  You just need to have the desire to learn and we are here to help you.

We had the privilege to teach the baseball Hall of Famer, Andre “The Hawk” Dawson how to swim.  He is now our national spokesperson to help us with drowning prevention.

We also assist police and firefighter cadets prepare for their swimming test to qualify for their requirements for employment and schooling.  Potential police and fire fighter’s need this requirement before they can register for the academy.

TESTIMONIAL FROM AN ADULT:

“When I turned 50 I felt it was time to begin crossing off some of the things on my very long bucket list.  #1 – learn how to swim.

After many years of trying, I lacked the confidence needed to take the leap and let go. I learned about the Baby Otter Swim School–obviously through a friend that had children. I met Marlene and Mindy at a class and they told me about their adult program where they offered private and group lessons. I went for the private lessons.

I started on Monday. The first day I floated holding on. The second day I let go By Wednesday I was doing the breathing techniques and by Friday, I was swimming across the pool. I haven’t stopped since. I love it and I owe it all to the Baby Otter Swim School.  Thank you ladies, for your patience and for giving me the confidence to learn such a great water activity. Our encounter was brief, but the experience is everlasting.”  Addy G.- Virginia
