About Us
We SWIM to SURVIVE
- Sink or Swim School, Charleston's premiere swim school, focuses on drowning prevention and teaching survival swimming skills.
- Our certified swim instructors teach students breath control, face down swimming, how to roll back to float, and repeat the swim-float-swim sequence to the edge of pool with confidence.
- Crawling children will learn breath control and how to roll back to a float.
- 15 months and up will learn breath control, roll back to a float and most will continue swimming across the pool and to the ledge for safety!
- We work with all ages!
- Our swimming program is also geared to with working children with special needs.
Drowning Prevention
No one is drown-proof but drowning is preventable with proper supervision, door locks, and alarms. Survival swimming skills never run out of batteries, offering another layer of protection for your child. Graduation from the Sink or Swim School program requires children to come fully clothed to class, fall into the pool, and practice what they've learned. 86% of children fall in fully clothed while under the supervision of both parents! Sink of Swim currently offers swim lessons in Mount Pleasant, Hanahan, Summerville, and the Charleston area.
