Safe Swimming at Goldfish Swim School – Plymouth, MI
We believe that teaching children how to swim is more than just building skills—it’s about fostering confidence, safety, and fun in the water. Our specially designed swim programs offer expert instruction for kids of all ages, from infants to school-aged children, ensuring every swimmer learns the fundamental water safety skills they need.
Why Water Safety Matters
Water safety is a vital skill for all children. In fact, drowning is a leading cause of accidental death among children. At Goldfish Swim School, we focus on equipping children with essential safety skills that can help prevent accidents and empower them to enjoy swimming confidently. Whether it’s learning how to float, perform basic swim strokes, or understand water awareness, our programs are designed to keep kids safe and prepared.
Our Approach to Safe Swimming
It combines a structured, fun, and supportive environment with personalized instruction to teach the following safety-focused skills:
- Water Safety Awareness: Children are taught how to identify and avoid dangerous situations around water, including poolside safety and recognizing the importance of always swimming with an adult present.
- Basic Survival Skills: Our swimming lessons include essential techniques like floating on their back, treading water, and performing a safe exit from the pool. These skills ensure children stay calm and safe in the water.
- Breath Control: Breath control is an essential skill for any swimmer, and we focus on helping kids become comfortable with holding their breath and swimming underwater. This ensures they know what to do in case they accidentally go underwater.
- Swim Strokes and Techniques: As children advance, we teach proper swim strokes such as the front crawl, backstroke, and more. This ensures they stay safe and develop the strength and coordination needed for efficient swimming.
