Private swimming lessons & Maintenance lessons:
Conveniently Located in Port Saint Lucie, Florida

At Tiny Bubbles Aquatic Academy through our training and hands on experience allows us to structure a swim program designed to ensure that your child successfully acquires aquatic problem solving skills. Private swimming lessons allow us to structure lessons to the way your child learns. What works for one, may not for another. Refresher or maintenance lessons are offered in early spring or anytime you feel they need to brush up on their skills. As pictured children are taught to prepared in case of an accidental fall into the water. Look how calm they are…they know the water.

What kind of results can I expect from these lessons?

Infants ages 6-12 months can learn to roll over from a face down position in the water
and rest in a comfortable float to breathe. Active infants may begin the kicks of swimming and be able to go a short distance before floating. This takes approx. 12-20 lessons.

Children ages 12 months to 5 years can learn to open his eyes, hold his breath, and grasp the pool edge. They also learn how to turn back towards the edge in case of an accidental fall in. They can learn to paddle to the steps, side or platform. When the child feels the need to breathe, he will roll onto his back. After a short rest period he will flip onto his tummy and continue to swim while looking for the pools edge or other landing. This takes approx 16-24 lessons.
Children who have learned from the swim float swim program naturally progress into freestyle swimming with rhythmic breathing. This transition occurs between ages 4-6.

How Are Lessons Conducted?

Consistency in attendance is key. Toddlers and young children do best with short lessons multiple times per week, rather than one long lesson. We use a variety of proven methods from swim schools and infant toddler programs.
Lessons begin with the parent/caregiver handing the child to the instructor in the pool.
If your child is reluctant to get in the water, we ask that you reassure them by focusing on the skills we are working on rather than their emotions. Your child needs your encouragement not your sympathy. As your child becomes familiar with the process we will concentrate on particular skills.
We do several check out lessons in clothing to see if your child could perform skills equally well if he/she fell into the water while fully clothed.
