Our March Instructor of the Month is Kaye! 🎉 With her decades of experience, she can teach any student who walks in the door! Kaye is always willing to take parent feedback into consideration when teaching to help create the best experience for her clients. She had a client recently that was super nervous at her first few lessons but she was so willing to try anything and everything to help this client get more comfortable and learn to love swimming. Great job Kaye! 🩵🙌 #SLWM #swimlessonswithmary #upstatesc #greenvillesc #spartanburgsc #charlottenc #yeahthatgreenville #gvltoday #kiddingaroundgreenville #watersafetyeducation #swimlessonssavelives #swimlessonsuccess #swimlesson #watersafety #learningtoswim #swimminginstructor #swimlessons #swimming #watersafetyfirst #swimmingcoach #swiminstructor #swimcoach #instructorofthemonth #swimlessonsforadults #swimlessonsforkids #babyswimlessons #lovewhatwedo #travelswimlessons

Check out our newest Instructor Intro all about T’yonna! Get to know more about her and see a glimpse of what taking lessons with her is like. 🩵🙌 💧What got you into swimming? When I was younger, I kept having dreams about drowning. My mom took me to our pastor and we prayed over it. A year later, there was an incident and my sister started to drown. Not even really knowing how to swim, but knowing that I needed to save her, I was able to! My grandmother was able to perform CPR, and my sister is thankfully 18 years old today. This is why water safety is so important to me. 💧Why did you become a swim instructor? I want people to help people learn this survival skill. It’s very important. 💧What you love about teaching at SLWM? I love teaching and getting to help improve my clients’ lives. I love working with kids and getting to see them succeed. Their smiles and laughter bring me so much joy. 💧Fun fact about you! I absolutely love to travel. I have been traveling since I was 2! #SLWM #swimlessonswithmary #upstatesc #greenvillesc #spartanburgsc #charlottenc #yeahthatgreenville #gvltoday #kiddingaroundgreenville #swimlessons #swimming #learningtoswim #swimcoach #swimlessonsuccess #swimmingcoach #watersafetyfirst #swimminginstructor #swimlesson #watersafety #swiminstructor #swimlessonssavelives #swimlessonsforadults #swimlessonsforkids #InstructorIntro #babyswimlessons #lovewhatwedo #watersafetyeducation #swimlessonssavelives

This month’s #InstructorIntro is about Sarah! Read below to get to know more about her and check out the video to see a glimpse of what lessons with Sarah are like. 🙌 💧What got you into swimming? I started swimming competitively when I was 6 for my summer swim team because all of my friends were doing it and then I stuck with it and eventually became a part of 3 swim teams year round til I was 19 💧Why did you become a swim instructor? I became a swim instructor while I was lifeguarding in high school because I loved teaching all the younger kids and continued with it through high school/college as a swim coach. 💧What do you love about teaching at SLWM? I love the relationships I have developed with my kids and their families over the past year. 💧Fun fact about you!? Fun fact about me is that I am in training to be a doctor. #swimlessonswithmary #SLWM #upstatesc #greenvillesc #spartanburgsc #charlottenc #yeahthatgreenville #gvltoday #kiddingaroundgreenville #swimminginstructor #swimlessonsforadults #swimmingcoach #watersafety #swimlessonssavelives #swimlesson #swimcoach #watersafetyfirst #swimlessons #swimlessonsforkids #learningtoswim #babyswimlessons #swimming #swiminstructor #swimlessonsuccess #lovewhatwedo

Alex and I headed to Vegas in September for a long weekend to attend the US Swim School Association Conference. It was an exciting few days filled with hundreds of passionate, private swim school owners from around the world. Everyone came together to share best practices on swim instruction & technique, drowning prevention, operations and how to deliver the best swim lesson and experience to each of you. We are energized and excited to continue to grow our impact in the community and are all united around one important cause - to prevent drownings. The days were jam packed with seminars, round tables and networking, but we did manage to squeeze in a few fun things along the way. We checked out the Sphere, lost the fastest $30 of our lives playing slots and got to see Cirque du Soleil before heading home on a red eye. Grateful for the opportunity to learn from the best in the industry and excited to continue to grow and serve each of our swimmers better everyday. Cheers! Mary #swimlessonssavelives #swimlessonswithmary #slwm

Today is World Mental Health Day and we wanted to share some of the amazing benefits that swimming can have on your mental health! 🧠 💧Swimming increases the blood flow to your brain. This increase in blood circulation helps improve mood, focus, and memory. 💧Swimming helps reduce your stress levels. It forces your mind to focus on your breathing pattern and body movement, acting as a form of meditation. 💧Swimming helps improve your quality of sleep. The combination of stress relief and a full body workout allows you to sleep better at night. 💧Swimming provides a great mental break from daily life. It is a healthy, and safe way to escape any stressors and negative thoughts you may be having. 💧Swimming can activate “blue mind” which relaxes the brain. This occurs when being surrounded by the color blue since it’s a soothing color that can help to boost relaxation and concentration. 💧Swimming helps to release endorphins. The use of rhythmic movements and deep breathing triggers an endorphin release which helps to naturally boost your mood. Did we miss any mental health benefits you can think of? Share them with us in the comments below! 👇 #worldmentalhealthday #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #swimmingformentalhealth #swimlessonswithmary #SLWM #upstatesc #greenvillesc #spartanburgsc #yeahthatgreenville #gvltoday #kiddingaroundgreenville #swimlessonsforadults #learningtoswim #swimlessonsuccess #watersafety #swiminstructor #swimlesson #swimlessonsforkids #babyswimlessons #swimlessonssavelives #swimming #swimlessons #watersafetyfirst #lovewhatwedo #swim

This week’s #SwimmerSpotlight is Simmons! ✨ Simmons is an intermediate level student who has been hard at work mastering his safety skills and learning freestyle and backstroke.

Thank you to everyone in the Greenville community for rallying around our neighbors during this difficult time. There are many amazing groups leading the charge. @happyhelicopters and other local pilots are delivering supplies to WNC and those in need thanks to your support and generosity. SLWM will be making a donation to these efforts and is extending an offer to our community of swimmers to opt in to donate a makeup lesson. If you’re interested and want to participate, please shoot us an email or message. SLWM will match all proceeds from donated makeup lessons and send all the proceeds to Happy Helicopter’s GoFundMe. We know you’re already out there supporting your families and neighbors. This is just another way to make a contribution if you would like to, without having to make an additional transaction. We will simply remove the makeup lesson from your account, and SLWM will match and donate the funds. Thank you for all that you do 🤍

This week’s #SwimmerSpotlight is Quinn! ✨ Quinn is a fast learner and such a determined swimmer! She has been working on her safety skills, taking independent breaths while swimming, and maintaining proper body position in the water. Her favorite part of swim lessons is just getting to be in the water! All of us at SLWM are super proud of you Quinn. Awesome work! 🙌🩵 #SLWM #swimlessonswithmary #upstatesc #greenvillesc #spartanburgsc #charlottenc #yeahthatgreenville #gvltoday #kiddingaroundgreenville #swimmingcoach #swiminstructor #swimlesson #swimlessonsforkids #swimlessonssavelives #babyswimlessons #watersafetyfirst #swimlessonsuccess #lovewhatwedo #SafeSummer #swimcoach #learningtoswim #swimlessons #swimming #watersafety #swimminginstructor #swim
