Slava is an excellent swimming instructor

Slava is an excellent swimming instructor. I can highly recommend him. He has a wide repertoire of swimming drills and has a very good and thoughtful training plan. Initially I was paddling like a duck. Now I can enjoy freestyle, butterfly, breast and back swimming with style. Slava helped me systematically to built up my technique step by step. He provides pinpointed feedback after each exercise. He will definitely help you advancing your swimming skills.
Thanks Slava!

We have known Slava, for quite some time now

We have known Slava, for quite some time now, and his demeanor has always been the same. He always has the best disposition, understands the needs and is keen in picking up on what needs work, and provides solutions. No matter the level, my son who is a competitive swimmer, or me, pretty much a beginner, Slava is consistent in his style of coaching, and transmits a great level of confidence across the lane line. I would gladly recommend Slava, hands down.

Not only is Slava an amazing human being

Wow, where to start! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Not only is Slava an amazing human being – empathetic, patience and polite. But he is by far the greatest teacher I’ve had. In just a couple of lessons I’ve been able to see progress in my technique which has hugely helped my confidence to pursue an Ironman 70.3!!!

Some key things that I love about having him as a teacher!

•patience – he’ll take the time to explain things in a way that you understand and show you as many examples as needed!
• hands-on – expect him to get in the pool with you and show you how it gets done.
•he is an athlete- you will learn from the best – hands down!
•100/100 – great investment for kids and adults, no doubt

FAQs

Parents often have many questions about swimming lessons for their children, and we’re here to help! We’ve answered some of the most common queries below so you can feel fully prepared and confident as you consider enrolling your child in our private or group swimming lessons in Miami, FL.

When Should Kids Start Swimming Lessons?

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends starting swimming lessons for children as young as one year old. Early exposure helps develop water safety skills and confidence. However, the best time to start depends on your child's age, comfort level, and developmental readiness.

Ages 1-4: Focus on water familiarization, floating, and basic safety skills.
Ages 4.5 and up: At this age, kids develop better coordination, making it easier to learn strokes and swimming techniques.
Older children: It’s never too late! Whether your child is a toddler, school-age, or preparing for the swim team, we offer personalized lessons to fit their needs.

What to Pack for Kids' Swimming Lessons?

To ensure your child is comfortable and prepared, we recommend bringing:

Swimsuit – A snug and comfortable fit that allows easy movement in the water.
Goggles – Help kids feel more comfortable underwater.
Swim Cap – Recommended for kids with long hair to prevent distractions.
Towel & Dry Clothes – These are for drying off and changing after the lesson.
Water Bottle – Staying hydrated is essential.
Swim Diaper (for toddlers) – Required for babies and young children who are not potty-trained.

To ensure the best learning experience during private swimming lessons at home, ensure the pool water temperature is comfortable.

How Many Swimming Lessons Do Kids Need?

Every child learns at their own pace, but the latest research suggests that 8 to 12 weeks of consistent swim lessons show the best results. Several factors determine progress, including:

Age group – Younger kids take longer to develop coordination and endurance.
Skill level – Beginners need time to master basic swimming skills, while experienced swimmers progress faster.
Lesson frequency – More frequent lessons help reinforce skills and build confidence.

For faster progress, we recommend multiple lessons per week and additional practice outside of classes.

How Long Are Swimming Lessons for Kids?

Our swimming lessons for kids range from 30 to 60 minutes, depending on age and skill level:

30-minute lessons – Ideal for toddlers and younger kids with shorter attention spans.
45-minute lessons – An excellent balance for school-age children and intermediate swimmers.
60-minute lessons – Best for advanced swimmers, competitive training, or endurance-building.

If you're uncertain which lesson length is best, our swim instructors can assess your child's needs and recommend the most effective option.

How Much Are Kids' Swimming Lessons?

The cost of swimming lessons for kids depends on factors such as lesson type and location. We offer:

Private swimming lessons – One-on-one coaching tailored to your child’s needs.
Semi-private lessons – Ideal for two kids at a similar skill level.
Group lessons – Small class sizes for social and structured learning.
