George Park Swimming School
Coming soon, near Ironwood Mall, Richmond BC
This program, developed by George Park, world famous swimmer,(see biography) provides instruction for students of all ages and levels. This is an individualized program with never more than four students per instructor using one-on-one rotation instruction. As a result, each student will progress naturally at their own rate. The water is kept at a warm, 90 degrees which creates a relaxing, enjoyable teaching and learning atmosphere.
Our swim school will be open year-round. We use a gentle-touch technique, developed by George Park and his family through the years. This method has been very successful, based on a relaxed, fun-filled, no-fear method.
Our teaching pool is a George Park swim-in-place RiverPool which insures that the student is never more than an arms length away from the instructor - (see George swimming below). The Riverpool current is fully adjustable, which enables non-swimmers to begin with the current turned off. When progress has been made to moving the arms up and over the top, the current is started at a low level, and swimming begins!
