"I am an adult who has never swum before. I started off this class with little confidence in the water and extremely uncoordinated. Miss Yvonne Swim School is exactly what I needed. The instructors worked with my skill level and comfort. They break down swimming into simple steps and work on muscle memory so swimming becomes automatic like riding a bicycle. After 12 classes, I am confident in the water and can do basic swimming! I am very grateful and happy that I joined this class."

"Miss Yvonne's swim classes are the best balance of safety, care and letting go when the child is ready. My daughter accomplished exactly what she needed and my hope for her: the ability to gracefully move away from flotation devices to staying afloat and learning strokes within a few short months, and has progressed beautifully as a confident swimmer."

"We had such a great experience at MYSS. My 5 year old daughter went in scared and crying. She was not a great swimmer but after a couple times she loved it. I was shocked at how quickly she learned to swim and was no longer scared of the water. After these swim classes, we are able to go on vacation without her being afraid of the water and enjoying the pool. I knew this was the place to send her from day one because I sent my boys to Miss Yvonnes’ summer camp a few years ago and was amazed at how in one week they went from being terrified of water to jumping off diving boards. I highly recommend this swim school and will be sending my daughter back for some more lessons, heck I might try to get lessons for myself."

"Our 5 years old son has been going to Miss Yvonne Swim School for a few months now. Although he only attends class once a week, we can witness him progressively developing solid skills advancing him to next levels. He has gotten very comfortable and confident in the water. He always looks forward to his next class to “learn or practice new tricks and have fun” which is oh so important at his age! Yvonne is personable, easy to work with, and communicates promptly!"

"‘H’ has always been shy so, as parents, we were always worried that it would take him forever to learn swimming. We decided to get him lessons with MYSS to see how it would go. After a few sessions, we saw our son starting to open up and he fell in love with the pool. As the floaties started to come off so did his shell. Now he jumps off into the pool, loves going to swimming class after school, and swims with no floaties. Going to swimming twice a week with miss Yvonne Swimming School has become part of his weekly routine (his favorite part). We can’t wait to see him progress more and learn more techniques as he continues to perfect his swimming."

"Miss Yvonne Swim school has done wonders for my daughter. When she first started, she refused to get into the pool or put her face in the water. However, with great patience from the instructors, little by little she made her way into the water. Within the first couple weeks, she was going under with no problems! Eventually, my daughter was jumping into the pool, learning strokes and retrieving rings from the bottom of the pool. She was able to gain a level of confidence in a short period of time which was exactly what she needed! Thank you Miss Yvonne’s Swim school!"

"I knew my daughter needed to learn how to swim once and for all; enter, Miss Yvonne’s Swim School Summer Camp program. I enrolled my 6 year old daughter for full-time camp in the Summer of 2015, and within two weeks she was already swimming confidently without swimmies. By the end of her 6 weeks there, she was proficient in all strokes, even butterfly! I cannot say enough great things about Yvonne and her Team – it’s worth the investment in your child’s safety, and my daughter had a BLAST going there!"

"Like most children, my daughter was hesitant of the water and swimming. Miss Yvonne has a great way of making kids feel comfortable and confident in the water. She is the perfect combination of friendly and stern. She earned my daughter’s trust but also wouldn’t let my daughter negotiate her way out of the lesson (which she definitely would have done!). Swimming is a priority for us because we are always around water and we thank Miss Yvonne for helping to keep us safe."

"Miss Yvonne is a miracle worker! Prior to attending Miss Yvonne Summer Camp my daughter was both unable to swim and fearful of jumping into the water. After 3 weeks at Miss Yvonne’s my daughter was swimming, jumping in the water and jumping off the diving board. Miss Yvonne and her talented staff really dedicated themselves to helping my daughter work through her fears and not allowing her to give up."

"An upcoming trip to Hawaii prompted my husband and I to get serious about teaching our four-year old daughter to swim. Given our short timeframe, Miss Yvonne recommended that K take two lessons per week. Six weeks later, K is jumping into the “deep end” and swimming half the length of the pool by herself. She has learned to tread water and float on her back. She and Miss Yvonne are now working on diving off the starting blocks and swimming a full lap. I am impressed at how much instruction Miss Yvonne is able to squeeze into a single 30 minute session. I am also impressed by how Miss Yvonne adapts her teaching style to meet K’s needs of the moment. Miss Yvonne is a nurturing and enthusiastic teacher, and her love of swimming has clearly rubbed off on my daughter."

"Miss Yvonne has been teaching my 3 and 5 yr old boys to swim for the last 9+ months. While she a very knowledgeable swim instructor what is most impressive is the technique she employs to get children to learn to swim and have fun at the same time. Her patience and understanding with kids who can be scared and intimidated by the water is invaluable. I highly recommend her. My 5 yr old son now swims on his own, the results say it all!"

"My 5 year old son had taken swim classes from Miss Yvonne through a Summer Camp program in Hoboken. Her ability to combine instruction, while also keeping children entertained, makes her a well-qualified teacher, she is a great motivator and has extreme patience in work with children at their own comfort level."

"Miss Yvonne was the ideal swim instructor for my 4 year old who has some special needs. She kept him focused at all times and made sure each lesson was fun and tailored to him as an individual. She challenged him to reach his potential without letting him get frustrated or distracted. He was swimming like a fish in the matter of a few lessons! We’ve never needed a swimmy or a vest since the day we met Yvonne! As a parent, I totally appreciated Yvonne’s professionalism and enthusiasm. She’s one of a kind and I highly recommend her!"

"Miss Yvonne has been teaching “Y” (5 yrs old) since before she could walk! Her patience seems infinite and “Y” just loves class. Whether in a group setting or one on one (we’ve done both) Miss Yvonne is able to keep the focus on the swimming and I have watched “Y” blossom into such a confident swimmer that I, as a mom, feel totally comfortable letting her swim without having to be in the pool with her."
