4 Reasons to Start Swim Lessons...Now!

Here at Big Blue, it’s always a great time to get into the water. If water safety and confident swimming are some of your family's goals for summer, read below for why now is the perfect time to get started with weekly swim lessons.

Our pools are comfortable and family-friendly!

We make it possible to swim comfortably year-round. With 90-degree water at every Big Blue location, shivering in the pool is never a part of learning with us. While your child learns, you can relax in our comfortable, WiFi-enabled viewing lobby. Our bright and welcoming spaces staffed with professional swim instructors are an ideal place to start learning a new and essential skill.

Summer is coming.

Parents often ask us when is the best time for kids to learn to swim. We believe that continuous weekly swim lessons year-round is the best way to make consistent progress in the water. Now is a fantastic time to start swimming lessons since it gives a child time to build skills, confidence, and excitement about swimming for peak swim season.

The summer sun often means spending time with friends at our favorite local pools and go on waterfront vacations with our families. Or, perhaps your family is planning a trip that involves some much-needed pool time. Any way you look at it, swimming is a fun way to spend time outdoors with your household. Knowing your young one is building swimming skills and gaining confidence will give you comfort that your kids will be prepared for better days ahead.

Mind/body wellness is always a good idea.

Many adults make a plan to work on their fitness leading up to summer. With school ending soon, your child may have energy to burn or may be spending more time in front of screens. Heading to a weekly swimming lesson at your local Big Blue Swim School ensures your child gets moving and playing outside of the house at least once a week! A chance to get some physical activity is good for confidence, mood, attention, and health.

Beyond building swim skills, Big Blue swim instructors focus on resilience, growth and celebrating progress. With so many activities and sports on hold, we know how important it can be for kids to have something to look forward to, something to work on, and a way to mark measurable progress.
