AquaFit Swim School is run by Donald Lopez who is the best swim instructor I could ask for. Donald helped me get over my fear of the water and regain swim skills along the way. My sole goal was to just not be afraid of swimming, particularly in deep water. Donald helped me to accomplish that and I got a great education in basic swim strokes: freestyle, breaststroke, elementary backstroke, and treading water, and learning how to breathe in all of these strokes. As Donald had told me, his goal was to help me learn what I need to do to be able to take care of myself when swimming or in water-- pools or even the ocean. Donald did accomplish that. In addition, he told me about pool etiquette. Donald is very patient, and worked with me to use his own personal experiences in swimming and learning to swim. Donald also uses as many analogies as he can think of to get on your level so the lessons make sense to you and you as the student get the most benefit. The pool used to do lessons in is a residential pool that is heated. There is a portable potty with a sink for your comfort. There is also a small one person tent to change clothes into bathing suit and out of the wet bathing suit if you so choose. On several occasions when was there, I saw Donald teaching all kinds of students, from kids about 5 years old (or perhaps younger!) to adults. I highly recommend AquaFit Swim School!

My 6 year old was afraid of putting her head underwater. 3 lessons and she's learning freestyle!  She is still learning but we could not be more happy with her progress thus far. Donald is an exceptional teacher and really patient. She absolutely loves it and he's the reason she no longer has anxiety getting her head underwater.  I also have my 3 and 4 year old doing semi private lessons and have been extremely pleased with their progress in learning water safety. I can't recommend him enough!

My girls ages 7 and 4 are currently enrolled and loving it! I've been so impressed with how far they have come in 3 weeks and I'm convinced that it's because they don't realize they are learning. To them it's just fun! I've done other swim classes in the past that are focused on teaching strokes but Donald insists teaching kids how to survive in the water while having fun is how they become better swimmers.... strokes come later. I could not be happier!
