Our low student to teacher ratio is what sets us apart and makes our lessons more effective than the common model of instruction used at large, corporate designed swim schools. Individuals who have a fear of the water or have had a previously traumatic experience in or around water are well served by our skilled and knowledgeable staff.
Our private swim lessons provide students with the individual attention needed to gain swim skills quickly. We teach infants and adult to be open water and pool safe. We ask that they do not wear goggles so we know they can open their eyes under the water comfortably and find the edge, ladder or stairs to exit the pool.

About
Report
Our founder Patti O'Brien loves children and teaching is her passion. She is the mother of six children and her swim school reflects her insightful parent perspective on what is important to and for children of all ages and their parents. In 1981, while still in high school, Patti announced the opening of Patti's Swim School by passing flyer's around her neighborhood.
Curriculum
Report
Patti's Swim School uses the Red Cross Water Safety curriculum to structure lessons. Tried and true, this curriculum incorporates all levels of instruction, from water adaptation to the skills needed to become lifeguard certified. Patti and management specifically trains each of her instructors on how to effectively and efficiently facilitate this curriculum.
Adult Swim
Report
Did you know that 46% of adults in the United States do not know how to swim? If you're one of these adults, you may be frustrated or embarrassed that you aren't free to swim "like everybody else". Every day we successfully teach adults just like you. You're not alone! Our curriculum for adult swim instruction is tailored after the same skill progression taught to our younger students, but the language and technique is specific for the adults.
Special Needs
Report
The instructors at Patti's Swim School are specifically trained to teach children with learning differences and special abilities. Our program takes the curriculum that we use for all children and adults and customizes it to the need of the learner. The goal of this program is pool and open water safety.
