I stumbled upon Shipman Swim School during my search for private swim lessons. Our 4-year-old son has been taking lessons from another local swim school since he was two; however, after all those time, we didn’t see any progress in his swimming skills. We tried to speak to the instructors, but you could tell that they really didn’t care as our son was one of the many students in their classes. We felt like just another number and that our time and money were going to waste when our son wasn’t at all progressing.
Then we found Shipman - the school is truly a hidden gem!! We enrolled our son in private lessons and after about 3 classes - we could see his skills improved significantly. The owners, Zumer and Stacey, are very personable and were more than willing to work with us on every aspect to accommodate our busy schedule, including changes in class schedule and make-up classes. The other instructors are really great and are extremely patient with the kids. Above all, we don’t feel like a number @ Shipman and we feel that the instructors DO care about our son’s progression. Our son is a better swimmer now and we are very grateful to the Shipman Team for making that happen!
We recently enrolled our two-year-old daughter in private lessons at Shipman and we have been amazed with her progression only after a few classes.
We love this place and highly recommend it. We just enrolled both of our kids again for 2018. Bottom line - if you want your child to really learn how to swim well AND enjoy it at the same time, then Shipman is the place for you!
My son hated swim lessons before starting at Shipman Swim School. He now looks forward to his lessons. The instructors are fabulous and really care about the kids that they teach. Each lesson is structured so the kids get to learn different swimming strokes and then get play time with rings at the end, which my son really enjoyed. We highly recommend Shipman Swim School!
My two boys have been taking lessons for 2+ years at Shipman Swim School and both are not only water safe but are learning the proper swim form in various strokes. Zumer and his staff are all very kind, gentle, patient and make swimming fun!
Our daughter has been receiving lessons at Shipman Swim School for the past three years. She started when she was 3 years old and was not comfortable in the water when she started. We had tried another swim school prior to Shipman and did not have much success getting her comfortable in the water. Once we started at Shipman, she began to progress really well. The instructors are just the right mix of assertive, patient, and comforting, and they do a great job of helping our daughter be comfortable and confident in the water. They are very goal-oriented and really want the children to learn how to swim and be safe in the water. We are excited to continue with Shipman to see how much further our daughter will progress with her swimming, as she really loves it!
My two boys (ages 3 & 6) started at Shipman in the Fall of last year and I was amazed at the progress they had made in such a short time.
To give you a frame of reference, we’d taken a long road trip the summer prior, camping near lakes and rivers, and my older boy would not only not swim, he’d freak out and HAVE to wear a life vest if water was deeper than his ankles. He grew comfortable quickly at Shipman and was fully swimming by the December break.
My 3 year old took longer to warm up, scream-crying a couple of times in resistance to entering the pool (apologies to swim fears our family placed on any children within earshot!), but he was coaxed with much respect and given time to warm up to the situation. He was making progress and seemed to suffer a bit of a regression after we were traveling and missed a couple of classes, but that was all handled with ease as well. He’s much more confident now and I look forward to see what he can accomplish next session.
Communication with Zumer has been very prompt whenever I’ve had a question and scheduling has been very easy.
The instructors that we’ve had have always been on the ball watching to ensure safety. My kiddos can be a handful and I’ve been impressed with how well laid out the boundaries are for kids and how they’re spoken to if they forget or start being goofy.
The boys and I cannot wait for classes to start again next month. I’ve enjoyed watching them gain confidence and look forward to them enjoying leisure time near & in water safely after what they’ve learned at Shipman.
