What People Are Saying About Us!
Posted on Google Danielle PayneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My daughter went from just loving being in the water to being an extremely confident swimmer. We started lessons when she was about 3, and did about 30 lessons from 3-4 throughout the summers. The instructors are patient and have great methods to teach little ones the basics and beyond. Super highly recommend.Posted on Google Chandra MargetisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My son really enjoyed his lessons with Ms Laura over the summer and also made a lot of progress. She was great at taking his special needs and accommodations into account. Ms Mallory and Ms Jessie were also great last school year - we hope to see them again this year!Posted on Google Kristy HjorthTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Instructors have been very calm and patient when working with my little guy.Posted on Google Jesse FTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Laura was amazing!! Our son loved swim lessons with her - he’s a fish. My daughter was apprehensive and Laura was great at meeting her where she was ready, and pushed her just right!Posted on Google Halsey FolkTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. All Knox Swim is the best! Laura is a top notch instructor who met all of my kids where they were each day. Their confidence soared because of her and their progress has been amazing! Highly recommend them!Posted on Google Josephine WigginsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Laura was amazing. In a few lessons this summer-Wow! She has an ability to recognize exactly what her clients need. She takes joy in helping others and it shows! I hope she’s back next summer.Posted on Google Kj ParentTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Laura was amazing this summer! Our tot screamed even getting in the bath at the beginning of the summer and after lots of gentle consistency she LOVES the water! We can’t get her out now! She can go under the water safely and relaxes when floating on her back and in general has progressed so far! We will continue lessons for sure!Posted on Google Nikki BucknerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely loved All Knox Swim! We swam with Lydia, Sarah Kate, and Laura and had an amazing experience with each one! Lydia was so kind and was able to challenge my son and encourage him to try new skills. We are so happy with the results and it was worth the time and investment.Posted on Google Elizabeth RueffTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Emma was amazing! My son gained much more confidence in his swimming after working with her this summer.

FAQ (see more here)
Coming soon!
Think about a group class. There are 3 to 6 students in a class. How much attention are they really getting from their instructor? How much practice time is really possible in a 30 minute group class?
Not much, which is why we offer 15 minute private lessons. They will get more attention and practice time in their 15 minute private lesson than they ever will in a group class that lasts 30 minutes.
If you still don’t believe that 15 minutes will work for you, check out our reviews on Google and Facebook!
What we recommend for frequency of lessons is as easy as 1, 2, 3!
1- Once a week during the fall
2- Twice a week during the spring
3- Three weeks (15 days) during the summer
We have found this to be the most effective pacing in helping students learn to swim.

Our Teaching Philosophy
The All Knox Swim Teaching Philosophy is what we call the Family Centered Model. The Family Centered Model is a way of teaching swim lessons and water safety that incorporates the whole family. There are two aspects of the Family Centered Model:
Family Involved Swim Lessons
- We gather lots of information on your registration, such as how much you want us to "push" your student, because you know what your child needs better than anyone
- Parents stay in the pool area the entire lesson
- Parents of infants and toddlers get in the water with the student until they can hold their breath for 3 seconds
- We teach private lessons so we have time to get your input before, during, and after your lessons.
Water Safety for the Whole Family
- We do role playing during swim lessons to practice water safety
- We share water safety information with families through many avenues, including our website
- You can ask us questions about water safety at any time
- We teach private lessons to allow the most time possible for personalized water safety instruction
