Great swimming facility with quality instructors who know how to effectively teach kids to swim. Coach Lilah has been great with our 8 year old and he has improved a lot in a relatively short period of time. Lessons are about 30 minutes and the pricing is reasonable for the quality. I recommend this swimming facility highly to parents who want their young ones to learn how to swim. 5 stars!

Amazing swim school. My son had lessons for a very long time with Goldfish, and he was still unable to swim. He was scared of his head being underwater, and we resigned ourselves to him just not being able to get over that. Fast forward to lesson 4 at Gwinnett Swim..not only could my son swim confidently, he was able to be under water very comfortably and he passed his lifesaver course in half the allocated time. Nothing short of incredulous. Thank you, Coach Simon! Awesome school.

We have had such an amazing experience with Gwinnett Swim. Our 2 year old daughter is close to finishing the ASI program. Her coach, Michelle, has been so loving, patient, kind, and FUN. She LOVES the water and is constantly talking about “coach michelle” and her “back floats” and “kick, kick, kicks.” Not only has she taught her life saving skills-Michelle has also been an instrumental part of her emotional/physical growth and love of the water! Michelle has also taken the time to educate us (mom & dad) weekly on things we can and CANNOT do—to protect and encourage our child to be safe and independent in water. Do not walk— run —to sign your kid up for swim lessons here!

We love Gwinnett swim! We enrolled my kids, ages 4 and 18 months, in their ASI program back in the spring so they would be ready for summer. They book out in advance, so if you are looking for a specific time of year I would suggest reaching out to them a bit earlier so you can snag your desired time. The facility is always clean and they always start right on time. All the staff are so friendly. We had coach Nada and she was awesome! She worked well with both of my kids, who have very different personalities. My 18 month old is quiet and shy and my 4 year old is defiant and stubborn. She was able to adapt to both of them to give them each what they needed. When my kids finished their test and graduated they got to ring the bell! It was so cute, everyone claps for their accomplishment and my kids were so proud of themselves. If you are interested in getting your kids into an ASI program, I can’t recommend Gwinnett swim enough!!
