Thank you for choosing to find out more about Kansas City Swim Rescue. My name is Jen Tyson and I have been teaching survival swim lessons for 9 years. I am so excited to share with you what survival swimming lessons are and how you can enroll your child.
Who are these lessons for? I specialize in teaching children 6 months (and sitting upright very well) to any age; however, any child/adult that does not know how to swim or utilize a survival float, is able to take lessons.
What are Survival Swim Lessons? A comprehensive swim program that teaches children survival floating skills and swimming skills. All instruction is tailored to each child’s specific abilities and needs.
What makes the different? Every lesson is one-on-one with the parent watching on the pool deck – no group lessons. I have a Behavioral Science Degree, and over 25 years of using behavior modification techniques with early education children. I have completed 8 weeks of classroom and in-pool training with a master instruction, am CPR/Frist AID certified and annually take continuing education classes to refresh and build expertise in teaching survival swim skills. This technique uses a science-based teaching approach that puts the needs and abilities of the child first.
What to expect lessons? All lessons are one-on-one, 4 days a week, for 10 minutes each day, for ~5 weeks, or 3 days a week, for 10 minutes a day, for ~7 weeks Your child stays in lessons until they are skilled; and once they are skilled, lessons will conclude.
