Dear Sirs,
We are writing to express our gratitude to Chris L. Our two daughters began swimming lessons at the end of July 2005. At the time, both Jamie and Danielle were truly afraid of the water and had absolutely no confidence, causing them to panic even when completely supervised in arm floating devices.

Chris’ nurturing, supportive approach has allowed them to gain the confidence they need, combined with the skill that he has taught them, to be in control in the water. We know that this was not an easy task…he nurtured them through the crying phase, was patient with them through the stubborn phase, and demonstrates his enthusiasm and pride to them, with all the achievements that they are presently making.

He is willing to work with them at their own pace, demonstrating patience for their individual needs on any given day. Our daughters truly love him! He was the first one on their prayer list before they went to bed at night when he was hurt. They refused to swim with anyone else, willing to wait to swim again until “Chris feels better”.

Chris always greets us with a big smile and a genuine desire to teach our daughters. He makes them feel important and special. They refer to him as their “friend” and always speak highly of him to all their friends and family. He is always flexible and willing to accommodate our schedules whenever possible for any make-up lessons that are needed. We cannot begin to thank him for the peace of mind he has given us and the confidence he has given our daughters. He is a tremendous asset to your program!

A great big thanks to Chris and to Saf-T-Swim, for giving our daughters a skill they need for life.

Sincerely,
Frank and Cathy S.
