5 Benefits of Taking Swim Lessons All Summer Long with Goldfish Swim School
You may think summertime is the best time to pause out your kids from their weekly swim lessons. Think again! The best time for your children to make progress in the water and stay safe is actually when they are out doing other water-based activities during the summer. Reinforcing the skills they are learning at Goldfish Swim School swim lessons each week in real life practice is the best way to stay safe in and around the water all summer long! Check out the tips below and sign up for swim lessons or clinics at Goldfish Swim School in Austin at Northwest Hills and in South Austin!

Here are some reasons why not to ditch swim lessons this summer:
Water Safety Skills are taught each week to help keep your child safer in and around the water. Your children have come so far in their learning all year – why stop now! Each week our swim lessons build on the important safety skills kids need to continue to stay safe in and around the water. With the skills to float on their back, find the closest wall, and exit a pool safely, your swimmers are more prepared for whatever is thrown their way, and whenever it comes!
Continue to develop fine and gross motor skills, enhance intellectual and emotional development and help foster independence. Our lessons are best with lots of practice. Coming to swim lessons each week gives swimmers the opportunity to repeat swim skills which lead to increased muscle memory and stroke improvement. 
Children thrive with routine. Weekly lessons give your child something fun to look forward to each and every week. Even during the summer months, kids need some structure and routine – routine creates a safe, trustworthy, reliable environment that they can count on and look forward to. Consistency of swim lessons provide the enjoyment, socialization, and exercise kids need during an ever changing summer of fun!
There is no need to re-register for the next class. Managing class changes is easily accessible in the Customer Portal. Plus, on rainy days (or very hot), nothing is better than an indoor fun family swim, a drop in extra class for additional swim skill work and practice. You can use your free makeup tokens during summer months and not have to worry about re-registering in the fall!
- Confidence
Experience our Science of SwimPlay methodology on a weekly basis helps children build confidence in themselves and their abilities. Many extra curricular activities build confidence, but nothing feels better for a child than excelling in the water. Knowing how to swim freely and safely in open bodies of water, and showing off swimming skills to friends will certainly put a smile on their face.
