Lanes Swim School (sample) has taught children and adults in Springfield since 2006. One pool, twelve teachers, small classes.
We started with four children and one teacher in a hotel pool. The idea has not changed: swimmers learn faster when the water is warm, the group is small and the teacher can reach every child.
Today the school runs more than 60 classes a week (sample) in its own 20-metre pool with a shallow teaching area.
Every teacher holds a swim teaching qualification and a background check (sample).
