Stephanie is a warm and caring person who exudes enthusiasm and empathy – characteristics that were critical for me to overcome my fear of the water and learn how to swim.
I can honestly say that Stephanie is the reason I am swimming today.

If I can learn to swim at the age of 71, you can, too. With Stephanie as your guide, you are in the hands of an adult learn-to-swim expert.
When I started I couldn't stand water on my face, not even in the shower. I felt like I couldn't breathe in chest-deep water. Stephanie took me from being terrified of going underwater to jumping up and down in the deep end and swimming across the pool on my own.

With Stephanie by your side, you will overcome your fear, learn the necessary skills to be comfortable in the water, and learn to swim with competence and confidence.
