We believe
We believe...
Starting children early
We believe students can begin gaining independence and being comfortable underwater as early as 2 years old, and that students can begin learning about the water environment as a baby. Our program progressively takes students from early baby ages into their toddler age and makes proficient, confident swimmers. We realize that students progress into independent swimmers at different ages but most can be independent by age 3 or 4.
Adjusting students to the new water environment
Water is a new environment that must be explored and enjoyed with the guidance of experienced instructors. We introduce students to the water environment to show that water can be fun environment as long as it is approached safely. Swimmers only gain confidence and independence in the water through continual exposure.
Treating every student as an individual
We believe that because every student is uniquely different that every student must be read differently and handled differently by our instructors. We do not used a "canned" approach to teaching swimming. Our instructors our hand picked to work with children well and then taught to teach each student uniquely. The instructor is expected to grow and find new ways to teach basic fundamentals of swimming to their students.
Encouraging independence in the water
Safe swimming around water requires the ability to swim independently. We believe that instruction should develop independence rather than avoid it. Students are encouraged to swim independently in their first lessons once they are comfortable underwater. The time when independence is achieved is different for each age and developmental level, which determines the amount of time students need in instruction.
Preventing the most preventable
Drown prevention instruction should start at an early age. We teach our parents how to work with their babies in introductory classes drown prevention strategies that will give students a chance in the water if they accidently fall in unexpectedly.
About us
About JSOF
Our Approach To Teaching
We teach beyond the bubbles... we believe swimming is a process but that underwater experience shouldn't be avoided indefinitely based the child's choice. We instead use strategies that help students work through their discomfort of the underwater experience with the safe guidance of our instructors.
Smaller classes are more effective for younger students... .we believe that large groups for younger students ages 2 to 4 are less effective based on our years of experience. We believe private and semiprivate classes are not only more effective - they are more cost effective in the long run. Our groups of three or more are for students 4 and older.
We don't use forceful methods... swimming should be enjoyable experience for students but at the same time a reasonably challenging experience. It is in that balance that we find students finishing our program knowing how to swim independently but enjoying it at the same time.
We are a year round swim school... for younger students 2-4 years old a consistent year round approach will help students build and maintain skills that will give the child confidence and knowledge around water throughout the year. We also offer advanced classes for older students to improve their competitive strokes for fitness and competition preparation.
Our instruction builds the foundation for competitve swimming... all the instruction is based on fundamental basics for good swimming technique.
We are experienced professionals. ..we believe that our experience with teaching swimming to hundreds of students gives us a vast knowledge base to understand how to read a variety of students.
