When teaching a child with autism to swim,
you are also helping to build their muscular
strength, improve their speech and language,
and further self esteem and confidence

Not only are our children with autism swimming in
our program, but they are also kissing their moms on
the cheek for the first time, singing Mr. Blue songs,
and even talking about swimming with Mr. Blue
when they drive onto premises.
