Question 1

Once we join, do we keep our time slot?

Accepted Answer

YES! This is one of our most loved features. Once you secure your preferred day and time, it's yours to keep forever - as long as you continue rebooking. You get a 3-day priority window before each new session opens to the public, guaranteeing your spot. No more scrambling for registration or losing your perfect schedule. Parents tell us this is life-changing - consistent routine, zero stress, and every lesson picks up where the last one left off.

Question 2

I'm/My family member is terrified of water. Can you really help?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Over 60% of our students start with water anxiety or fear. We create a custom plan specifically for your fears—some need gradual water introduction, others prefer gentle immersion techniques. Our instructors are trained in trauma-informed approaches and adapt their teaching style to your comfort level. We never force or rush - we build trust first, then confidence. Most fearful swimmers are comfortable in water within 4-6 lessons.

Question 3

How quickly will I/my swimmer learn to swim?

Accepted Answer

Every swimmer progresses at their own pace. Most swimmers start feeling comfortable in the water within 2-3 lessons and are swimming independently within 8-10 lessons. We focus on building confidence and safety skills first, then refine technique. Your instructor will set realistic goals based on your starting point and comfort level.

Question 4

What makes Inspired Swim different from community center lessons?

Accepted Answer

We build custom programs for each swimmer instead of one-size-fits-all group classes. Private lessons mean we adapt to your pace, learning style, and comfort level—something impossible with 8-12 students. Every lesson is tailored to your specific needs. Our hand-picked instructors provide consistent, personalized attention in warmer, comfortable facilities.

Question 5

Is it worth the investment compared to cheaper options?

Accepted Answer

Consider this: Our students typically achieve in 8 lessons what takes 20+ lessons elsewhere. When you factor in time, gas, and frustration of slow progress, we often cost LESS overall. Plus, water safety is a life skill - the difference between quality instruction and 'cheap' lessons could literally save a life. Our Making Waves program also provides free lessons to families in need.

Question 6

What safety measures do you have in place?

Accepted Answer

Safety is our #1 priority: All instructors are certified in CPR, First Aid, and Water Safety Instruction. We maintain a 100% safety record over 7+ years. Maximum 3:1 student ratio (often 1:1 for beginners). Detailed safety protocols and emergency action plans at every facility. Full insurance coverage. Parent/guardian always poolside.

Question 7

What if I/my swimmer has special needs or sensory issues?

Accepted Answer

We welcome swimmers of all abilities! We create fully customized programs that adapt to different learning styles—visual, auditory, kinesthetic, or sensory-sensitive approaches. Many of our instructors have experience working with neurodivergent learners. We'll do our best to match you with an instructor suited to your specific needs because every swimmer learns differently.

Question 8

Do you offer adult swimming lessons?

Accepted Answer

Yes! About 30% of our students are adults learning to swim or overcoming water fear. Adult lessons are completely private, scheduled at convenient times, and taught with respect and patience. Whether you never learned growing up or had a traumatic experience, it's never too late. Most adults are swimming within 6-8 lessons.

Question 9

What happens if I/my swimmer doesn't like their instructor?

Accepted Answer

While rare, we take instructor matching seriously. If there's not a good fit, we'll do our best to work with you to find a solution. Our goal is for every swimmer to have a positive learning experience with their instructor.
