Why are Fontana swimming lessons so important?
Drowning is the second leading cause of accidental death in the US for children under 14, and in most cases, it happens in just minutes – even when a caregiver is nearby. In fact:
Enrolling your child in swimming lessons is one of the best ways to prevent drowning by teaching them essential water safety skills.

I am truly a water loving person. I spent most of my life in and around swimming pools, both playing and competing in swimming. I was a competitive swimmer from the age of 5 until well into my 30s and have attained both national and international success in the Backstroke. While in High School and College, I spent my summers teaching swimming lessons and lifeguarding for a city swim program. I love helping others learn new skills from water comfort to competitive stroke instruction and everything in between. I believe swimming should be a great way to enjoy life, so let's have fun and learn new skills together!
