Why: Why are swimming lessons an important part of water safety, especially for children with special needs?
Drowning is the second leading cause of accidental death for children age 1-14
The risk of drowning is 160 times that for children with autism and is the leading cause of accidental death
Swimming lessons for children with special needs have been found to have a significant impact on swimming ability, competency, and confidence.
How: How are adaptive lessons conducted at Big Blue?
The Swim Whispers Method prioritizes inclusive learning ensuring that children of all abilities including sensory issues, problems with motor skills, difficulty processing information, attention issues, or any other physical or psychological conditions can safely and confidently engage in swimming.
Lessons are tailored to the individual child’s pace and ability to cultivate both water safety skills, and a sense of achievement and confidence.
Adaptive lessons are taught one-on-one.
Families can come in for a free trial lesson where children’s unique needs and current ability are evaluated to determine the right place for them to begin.
